Heterogeneous-Agent Asset Pricing 异构代理资产定价
James D. Paron
This paper studies the importance of idiosyncratic endowment shocks for aggregate asset prices in continuous time. My generalized framework accommodates jumps and heterogeneous recursive preferences. I show that countercyclical cross-sectional risk is irrelevant to risk premia if and only if all agents have identical, time-additive power utility and cross-sectional risk is uncorrelated with aggregate consumption risk. It always affects the riskfree rate and equity volatility. I calibrate a general-equilibrium model in which numerous agents face uninsurable idiosyncratic human-capital disasters. Using Social Security Administration income data, I show that time-varying cross-sectional income skewness is an important driver of asset price dynamics.
本文研究了连续时间条件下特殊禀赋冲击对总资产价格的重要性。我的一般化框架支持跳转和异构递归首选项。我表明逆周期横截面风险与风险溢价无关,当且仅当所有代理具有相同的、时间累加的电力效用,横截面风险与总消费风险无关。它总是影响无风险利率和股票波动率。我校准了一个一般均衡模型,在这个模型中,许多代理人面临着不可保险的特殊人力资本灾难。使用社会保障局收入数据,我表明,时变的横断面收入偏度是资产价格动态的重要驱动因素。

The Effects of Transparency on OTC Market-Making 透明度对场外做市的影响
Ryan Lewis, Michael Schwert
We examine the effects of post-trade transparency on intermediation in the over-the-counter corporate bond market using the staggered introduction of TRACE as a natural experiment. Post-trade transparency leads to increased trading volume and more connected dealer networks. Transparency reduces dealers' profitability but also their portfolio risk and adverse selection costs. In contrast to prior research suggesting that TRACE benefits customers at the expense of dealers, we show that the net effect on dealer welfare is ambiguous. Bond spreads are less predictive of default in a transparent market, consistent with reduced profitability of informed trade weakening incentives to produce information.
我们考察了交易后透明度对场外公司债券市场中介的影响,采用交错引入TRACE作为自然实验。交易后的透明度导致交易量增加,交易商网络联系更加紧密。透明度降低了交易商的盈利能力,但也降低了他们的投资组合风险和逆向选择成本。与先前的研究表明TRACE以牺牲经销商为代价使客户受益相反,我们表明对经销商福利的净影响是模糊的。在一个透明的市场中,债券息差对违约的预测能力较弱,这与知情交易的盈利能力下降削弱了提供信息的激励是一致的。

Vertical Control 垂直控制
Herbert Hovenkamp
Antitrust litigation often requires courts to consider challenges to vertical “control.” How does a firm injure competition by limiting the behavior of vertically related firms? Competitive injury includes harm to consumers, labor, or other suppliers from reduced output and higher margins. Historically antitrust considers this issue by attempting to identify a market that is vertically related to the defendant, and then consider what portion of it is “foreclosed” by the vertical practice. There are better mechanisms for identifying competitive harm, including a more individualized look at how the practice injures the best placed firms or bears directly on a firm’s ability to reduce output and increase its price without losing so many sales that the price increase is unprofitable. One important consequence of these new approaches is that the market share numbers that the antitrust case law traditionally attaches to foreclosure percentages are not particularly meaningful. The tying and exclusive dealing case law generally aggregates the market subject to foreclosure concerns and considers foreclosure as a percentage of an undifferentiated whole. In general, it proclaims minimum market foreclosure percentages in the range of 30% - 40% as a condition for illegality. When we focus more accurately on marginal effects and the possibility of raising rivals’ costs, however, these numbers are much less significant. For example, if the lowest cost firm in a market is subject to an exclusivity agreement, anticompetitive results, particularly RRC, could obtain even if the percentage of total sales is far less than 30%. By contrast, if only the least efficient firm or firms in a market were made subject to such an agreement, even aggregate foreclosure percentages higher than 40% might result in no competitive harm.
反垄断诉讼通常要求法院考虑对垂直“控制”的挑战。企业如何通过限制垂直相关企业的行为来损害竞争?竞争性损害包括因产量减少和利润提高而对消费者、劳动力或其他供应商造成的损害。从历史上看,反托拉斯考虑这个问题的方式是,试图确定一个与被告垂直相关的市场,然后考虑其中哪一部分被垂直实践“取消赎回权”。有更好的机制来识别竞争损害,包括更个性化地看待这种做法如何损害处于最佳位置的公司,或直接影响公司减少产量和提高价格的能力,而不会损失太多的销售,以至于价格上涨无利可图。这些新方法的一个重要后果是,反垄断判例法传统上附加在止赎比例上的市场份额数字并不是特别有意义。捆绑和排他性交易判例法通常汇总了受止赎关注的市场,并将止赎视为一个无差别整体的百分比。一般来说,它宣布最低市场止赎率在30% - 40%的范围内作为非法的条件。然而,当我们更准确地关注边际效应和提高竞争对手成本的可能性时,这些数字就不那么重要了。例如,如果市场上成本最低的公司受制于排他性协议,即使总销售额的百分比远低于30%,也可能产生反竞争结果,特别是RRC。相比之下,如果只有效率最低的公司或市场上的公司受制于这样的协议,即使总止赎率高于40%也不会造成竞争损害。

Financial Fragility with SAM? 资产管理资产的金融脆弱性?
Daniel L. Greenwald, T. Landvoigt, Stijn Van Nieuwerburgh
Shared Appreciation Mortgages feature mortgage payments that adjust with house prices. They are designed to stave off borrower default by providing payment relief when house prices fall. Some argue that SAMs may help prevent the next foreclosure crisis. However, home owners' gains from payment relief are mortgage lenders' losses. A general equilibrium model in which financial intermediaries channel savings from saver to borrower households shows that indexation of mortgage payments to aggregate house prices increases financial fragility, reduces risk-sharing, and leads to expensive financial sector bailouts. In contrast, indexation to local house prices reduces financial fragility and improves risk-sharing.
共享增值抵押贷款的特点是抵押贷款的支付会随着房价的变化而调整。它们旨在通过在房价下跌时提供还款减免来避免借款人违约。一些人认为,sam可能有助于防止下一次止赎危机。然而,房主从支付减免中获得的收益是抵押贷款机构的损失。在一般均衡模型中,金融中介机构将储蓄从储蓄者引导到借款人家庭,该模型表明,抵押贷款支付与总房价的指数化增加了金融脆弱性,减少了风险分担,并导致昂贵的金融部门救助。相比之下,与当地房价的指数化降低了金融脆弱性,改善了风险分担。

The Risks of Safe Assets 安全资产的风险
Yang Liu, L. Schmid, A. Yaron
US government bonds exhibit many characteristics often attributed to safe assets: They are very liquid and lenders readily accept them as collateral. Indeed, a growing literature documents significant convenience yields, perhaps due to liquidity, in scarce US Treasuries, suggesting that rising Treasury supply and government debt comes with a declining liquidity premium and a fall in firms' relative cost of debt financing. In this paper, we empirically document a dual role for government debt. Through a liquidity channel, an increase in government debt improves liquidity and lowers liquidity premia by facilitating debt rollover, thereby reducing credit spreads. Through an uncertainty channel, however, rising government debt creates policy uncertainty, raising credit spreads and default risk premia. We interpret and quantitatively evaluate these two channels through the lens of a general equilibrium asset pricing model with risk-sensitive agents subject to liquidity shocks, in which firms issue defaultable bonds and the government issues tax-financed bonds that endogenously enjoy liquidity benefits. The calibrated model generates quantitatively realistic liquidity spreads and default risk premia, in line with historical US debt policies and low corporate default rates. Quantitatively, our model suggests that while rising government debt reduces liquidity spreads, it not only crowds out corporate debt financing, and therefore, investment, but also creates uncertainty reflected in endogenous tax volatility, credit spreads, and risk premia, and ultimately consumption volatility. Therefore, increasing safe asset supply can be risky.
美国政府债券表现出许多通常被认为是安全资产的特征:它们流动性很强,贷款人愿意接受它们作为抵押品。事实上,越来越多的文献表明,稀缺的美国国债的便利收益率很高,这可能是由于流动性,这表明,国债供应和政府债务的增加,伴随着流动性溢价的下降和企业债务融资的相对成本的下降。在本文中,我们实证地证明了政府债务的双重作用。通过流动性渠道,政府债务的增加通过促进债务展期来改善流动性并降低流动性溢价,从而减少信贷息差。然而,通过不确定性渠道,不断上升的政府债务造成了政策不确定性,提高了信贷息差和违约风险溢价。我们通过一个一般均衡资产定价模型来解释和定量评估这两个渠道,其中风险敏感主体受到流动性冲击,其中企业发行违约债券,政府发行内源性享有流动性利益的税收融资债券。经过校准的模型产生的流动性息差和违约风险溢价在数量上符合实际,与美国历史上的债务政策和较低的企业违约率相符。从数量上看,我们的模型表明,虽然政府债务的增加减少了流动性息差,但它不仅挤出了企业债务融资,从而挤占了投资,而且还产生了不确定性,反映在内生的税收波动、信贷息差和风险溢价,以及最终的消费波动上。因此,增加安全资产供应可能存在风险。

Mutual Fund Liquidity Transformation and Reverse Flight to Liquidity 共同基金流动性转换与流动性反向外逃
Yiming Ma, Kairong Xiao, Yao Zeng
We identify fixed-income mutual funds as an important contributor to the unusually high selling pressure in traditionally liquid asset markets during the Covid-19 crisis. We show that mutual fund liquidity transformation leads to pronounced investor outflows. In meeting redemptions, funds followed a pecking order by first selling their more liquid assets, which generated the most concentrated selling pressure in traditionally more liquid asset markets. Investors' flight to liquidity was thereby turned into an aggregate reverse flight to liquidity. The Fed's announced purchase of illiquid securities may be an effective policy tool for stabilizing liquidity transformation and liquid asset markets.
我们认为,在新冠肺炎危机期间,固定收益共同基金是造成传统流动性资产市场异常高抛售压力的重要因素。我们的研究表明,共同基金流动性的转变导致了明显的投资者外流。在应对赎回时,各基金遵循优先顺序,首先出售流动性更强的资产,这在传统上流动性更强的资产市场产生了最集中的抛售压力。因此,投资者向流动性的转移转变为总体上向流动性的反向转移。美联储宣布购买非流动性证券,可能是稳定流动性转换和流动性资产市场的有效政策工具。

Heterogeneous Passthrough from TFP to Wages 全要素生产率对工资的异质性传递
Mons Chan, Sergio C. Salgado, Ming Xu
In this paper, we use matched employer-employee data from Denmark to analyze the extent to which firms’ productivity shocks are passed to workers wages. The richness of our dataset allows us to separately study continuing and non-continuing workers (switchers), to correct for selection, and to investigate how the passthrough varies across narrow population groups. Our results show a much larger degree of passthrough from firms’ shocks to workers’ wages than reported in previous research. On average, an increase of one standard deviation in firm-level TFP commands an increase of 3.0% in annual wages ($1500 USD for the average worker). Furthermore, we find that the effect of productivity shocks on wage growth for switchers is of larger magnitude relative to workers that stay in the same firm. Finally, we find large differences in the passthrough of productivity shocks to wages for workers of different income levels, ages, industries, and working in firms of different productivity levels. In the second part of our paper, we estimate a stochastic process of income that captures the salient features of the relation between firm-level shocks and the passthrough to workers' wages. We then embed the estimated stochastic process into a life-cycle consumption savings model with incomplete markets in order to evaluate the welfare and distributional implications of the passthrough from firm's TFP shocks to worker's wages we observe in the data.
在本文中,我们使用来自丹麦的匹配雇主-雇员数据来分析企业生产率冲击传递给工人工资的程度。我们数据集的丰富性使我们能够分别研究继续工作和不继续工作的工人(转换者),纠正选择,并调查在狭窄的人口群体中传递如何变化。我们的研究结果表明,企业冲击对工人工资的传导程度比以前的研究报告要大得多。平均而言,企业层面的全要素生产率每增加一个标准差,其年薪就会增加3.0%(普通工人的年薪为1500美元)。此外,我们发现,相对于留在同一家公司的工人,生产率冲击对转行工人工资增长的影响更大。最后,我们发现生产率冲击对不同收入水平、年龄、行业和在不同生产率水平企业工作的工人工资的传导存在很大差异。在本文的第二部分中,我们估计了一个收入的随机过程,该过程捕捉到了企业层面冲击与工人工资传导之间关系的显著特征。然后,我们将估计的随机过程嵌入到不完全市场的生命周期消费储蓄模型中,以评估我们在数据中观察到的企业TFP冲击对工人工资的传递对福利和分配的影响。

An Analytic Framework for Interpreting Investment Regressions in the Presence of Financial Constraints 金融约束下投资回归的分析框架
Andrew B. Abel, Stavros Panageas
A financial constraint that prevents access to external funds induces non-classical measurement error in average q as a proxy for unobservable marginal q. Unlike classical measurement error, this measurement error biases upward the coefficient on average q in a univariate regression of investment on average q. In a multiple regression of investment on average q and cash flow, the coefficient on cash flow is positive. The positive cash-flow coefficient indicates the presence of a financial constraint, but it does not indicate a shortage of liquidity to fund current investment. In addition, the coefficient on average q is biased downward.
阻止获得外部资金的财务约束导致平均q的非经典测量误差作为不可观察边际q的代理。与经典测量误差不同,这种测量误差在平均q投资的单变量回归中使平均q系数向上偏倚。在平均q投资和现金流量的多元回归中,现金流量系数为正。正的现金流量系数表明存在财务约束,但它并不表明缺乏流动性来为当前投资提供资金。此外,平均q的系数向下偏置。

Joint Bottom-Up Method for Forecasting Grouped Time Series: Application to Australian Domestic Tourism 联合自下而上的分组时间序列预测方法:在澳大利亚国内旅游中的应用
N. Bertani, Ville A. Satopää, Shane T. Jensen
Many applications involve a hierarchy of time-series, where values at the bottom level aggregate to values at higher levels. Forecasts of such hierarchical data need to be accurate, probabilistic, and coherent in the sense of respecting hierarchical aggregation. While recent developments have explicitly modeled every time-series in the hierarchy, we show, under general conditions, that hierarchical data can be modeled jointly by considering only its bottom-level series and their contemporaneous covariance. Inspired by this result, we devise a Bayesian method that models bottom-level series jointly, takes into account their contemporaneous covariance, and performs automatic selection of lag terms, both within and across series. The model copes with high-dimensional data, and outputs both point and probabilistic forecasts. Additionally, it returns posterior distributions of all parameters, which can be used for inference. As a case study, we apply our method to make recommendations on planning and promotion of domestic tourism in Australia. Our model reveals the hidden spatio-temporal dynamics of different types of domestic tourism in Australia, and allows us to explore how promotional investments could be localized to develop tourism in accordance with the declared desiderata of the Australian government.
许多应用程序涉及时间序列的层次结构,其中底层的值聚合到更高级别的值。这种分层数据的预测需要在尊重分层聚合的意义上是准确的、概率的和连贯的。虽然最近的发展已经明确地对层次结构中的每个时间序列进行了建模,但我们表明,在一般情况下,可以通过仅考虑其底层序列及其同期协方差来联合建模层次数据。受此结果的启发,我们设计了一种贝叶斯方法,该方法联合底层序列建模,考虑它们的同期协方差,并在序列内和序列间自动选择滞后项。该模型处理高维数据,并输出点和概率预测。此外,它返回所有参数的后验分布,可用于推理。作为一个案例研究,我们运用我们的方法对澳大利亚国内旅游的规划和推广提出建议。我们的模型揭示了澳大利亚不同类型国内旅游的隐藏时空动态,并允许我们探索如何根据澳大利亚政府宣布的愿望本地化促销投资以发展旅游业。
