Saddlepath learning occurs when agents know the form but not the coefficients of the sad?dlepath relationship defining … rational expectations equilibrium. Under saddlepath learning, we obtain a completely general relationship between determinacy … system is determinate, we show that a learning process based on the saddlepath is always e-stable.

We present a decision theoretic framework in which agents are learning about market behavior and that provides … microfoundations for models of adaptive learning. Agents are 'internally rational', i.e., maximize discounted expected utility under … discounted sum of dividends. As a result, learning about price behavior affects market outcomes, while learning about the …

We introduce learning into a Hotelling model of a non-renewable resource market. Bycombining learning and scarcity we … add signi?cantly to the dynamics implied by learning and substantially enhance the volatility of commodity prices. In our … learning model we show how a self con?rming equilibrium exists but is not constant over time. As scarcity increases the SCE …

Saddlepath learning occurs when agents learn adaptively using a perceived law of motion that has the same form as the … saddlepath relationship in rational expectations equilibrium.  Under saddlepath learning, we obtain a completely general … information.  When the system is determinate, we show that a learning process based on the saddlepath is always e-stable.  When …

Consumption-based asset pricing models with time-separable preferences can generate realistic amounts of stock price volatility if one allows for small deviations from rational expectations. We consider rational investors who entertain subjective prior beliefs about price behavior that are not...
