We examine the private information associated with insider trades using a Chinese data set. Insider buys positively forecast individual stock returns and insider sales negatively forecast individual stock returns. Classifying insiders as corporate managers and institutional investors, we find...

This paper revisits the Kareken-Wallace model of exchange rate formation in a two-country overlapping generations world. Following the seminal paper by Arifovic (Journal of Political Economy, 104, 1996, 510 - 541) we investigate a dynamic version of the model in which agents' decision rules are...

I consider a consumption based asset pricing model where the consumer does not know if shocks to dividends are stationary (temporary) or non-stationary (permanent). The agent uses a Bayesian learning algorithm with a bias towards recent observations to assign probability to each process. While...

This paper solves the canonical dynamic rational inattention problem of Sims (2003) by formulating it in the frequency domain. The solution complements and extends existing results, which have been derived in the time domain. The paper provides a simple algorithm that quickly and accurately...
