The seminal work of Huggett (1993) showed that in a stationary recursive equilibrium, there exists a unique stationary distribution of agent types. However, the question remains open as to whether an equilibrium’s individual state space might turn out to be such that: either (i) every...

A theoretical curiosity remains in the Huggett [1993] model as to the possible existence of a unique and degenerate stationary distribution of agent types. This coincides with the possibility that an equilibrium individual state space may turn out to be trivial in the sense that every agent...
