This paper studies in continuous time and in an incomplete market setting the optimal housing, consumption, labor and portfolio choice of an agent in the presence of stochastic house prices and wages. Thus, the house prices and wage rates cannot be spanned by the financial market. In particular, the paper investigates the optimal strategies under two different preference specifications with respect to housing. The paper provides new closed-form solutions in the special case in which the market is complete. In addition, the paper also studies the optimal housing, consumption, labor, portfolio and welfare implications of frictions in the housing market. Particularly, the optimal strategies and welfare loss are analyzed if the house is a non-traded asset. This paper suggests that the consumption, labor, speculative investment and hedging of human capital is similar across preference specification and frictions in the market for housing when the economy is complete. The consumption and labor strategies are, however, dependent on frictions in the market for housing in the case where the economy is incomplete. The welfare loss from these frictions is small in magnitude but will influence the optimal consumption, labor and portfolio choice.

In this work, the effect an asset price bubble has on optimal portfolio allocations is investigated. A price bubble is an economic phenomenon that occurs when the observed market price of an asset does not coincide with its value in an objective sense. Advancements have recently been made in the mathematical modeling of price bubbles and allow us to investigate the effect the presence of a bubble has on portfolio optimization. A duality viewpoint allows us to gain insight in our investigation and the tools from the Malliavin Calculus are used to characterize the investor's optimal holdings. A simulation framework is developed and the results are analyzed. From this investigation, it is concluded that the presence of asset price bubbles cause investors to reduce the number of shares they trade of the asset.

Includes an examination of traditional asset allocation methods, why they do and do not work, and which elements can be used in overseeing the professional's own portfolio. In addition, the author introduces his own proven method of portfolio management and asset allocation strategies--the ``7-Step System''--using simple statistical techniques to forecast stock, bond, commodity, and money market returns. Free of complex mathematics, charts, graphs, and technical jargon, this is a highly readable guide to getting the most from today's sophisticated investment techniques.

This paper develops a general and flexible multivariate discrete-time model of dynamic asset allocation with incomplete information and learning in the case of timevarying investment opportunity sets. The state variables are described by a vector autoregression and the investor is assumed to have normally distributed and possibly correlated priors on the values of the state variables. We apply the model to an investor who learns about the mean returns on the market and Fama-French SMB and HML portfolios when the size and value premia disappear (possibly stochastically) over time due to trading by other investors. The portfolio implications are shown to be substantial.

The aim of this book is to study portfolio and consumption decisions in the presence of durable goods, in particular housing. Part I provides a review of advances in portfolio theory. Dealing with durability raises complex mathematical issues discussed in the appendix. Part II focuses on a particularity of durable goods that has been studied very little, namely the decision to buy versus renting. We provide an original model of tenure choice and study its impact on households' optimal financial decisions. To achieve this we merge real options and portfolio theory and are able to obtain fairly explicit solutions, even with incomplete markets. In fact, it is the presence of market incompleteness, that is, the imperfect hedgeability by trading in financial assets of idiosyncratic risks linked to real estate that leads to our main finding: Risk aversion and market incompleteness reduce the relative attractiveness of homeownership relative to renting. We find that homeownership becomes more affordable and more likely as market incompleteness decreases and risks can be hedged better, while higher market incompleteness and risk aversion tend to depress house prices.

This collection of original articles—8 years in the making—shines a bright light on recent advances in financial econometrics. From a survey of mathematical and statistical tools for understanding nonlinear Markov processes to an exploration of the time-series evolution of the risk-return tradeoff for stock market investment, noted scholars Yacine Aït-Sahalia and Lars Peter Hansen benchmark the current state of knowledge while contributors build a framework for its growth. Whether in the presence of statistical uncertainty or the proven advantages and limitations of value at risk models, readers will discover that they can set few constraints on the value of this long-awaited volume. - Presents a broad survey of current research—from local characterizations of the Markov process dynamics to financial market trading activity - Contributors include Nobel Laureate Robert Engle and leading econometricians - Offers a clarity of method and explanation unavailable in other financial econometrics collections

O problema de como alocar ativos de forma eficiente tem sido uma das questões fundamentais em Finanças. Uma das mudanças recentes no mercado brasileiro tem sido o crescimento dos fundos de Contribuição Definida, seguindoa tendência observada em outros mercados. Entretanto, ao focalizar decisões de investimento sob o ponto de vista do investidor individual, surge a necessidade de incluir a tributação no processo de alocação de carteiras. Neste contexto, este trabalho analisa a decisão de alocação e localização preferencial para as classes de ativos, em veículos de investimento com tributação convencional, ou comdiferimento de imposto, mediante a legislação local. O investidor possui dois tipos de riqueza, seu capital financeiro acumulado, e o capital humano, representado pela capacidade de gerar rendimentos futuros. A solução é obtida por alocação multiperiódica de recursos, seguindo o critério de maximização da utilidade esperada da riqueza final. Face à eficiência tributária dos fundos mútuos de ações domésticos, estes podem ser priorizados na localização externa aos planos com tributação diferida, coerente com resultados recentes para o mercado americano. Contudo, se existem diferenças nas rentabilidades das classes de ativos, nos distintos veículos de investimentos, aquela localização prioritária pode mudar, pelo menos paraaplicações com objetivos a serem atingidos em prazos reduzidos.

Explains how we got into the current economic disaster that developed out of the economics and politics of the housing boom and bust. The "creative" financing of home mortgages and "creative" marketing of financial securities based on these mortgages to countries around the world, are part of the story of how a financial house of cards was built up--and then collapsed.
