An Introduction to General Equilibrium with Incomplete Asset Markets*
The theory of general equilibrium with incomplete asset markets (GEI) studies the pricing of securities and commodities, and the interactions of perfectly competitive asset markets and commodity markets in determining consumption and investment. Since financial economics is fundamentally concerned with the pricing of securities, and since macroeconomics is fundamentally concerned with the real ...
متن کاملArbitrage without borrowing or short selling?
We show that a trader, who starts with no initial wealth and is not allowed to borrow money or short sell assets, is theoretically able to attain positive wealth by continuous trading, provided that she has perfect foresight of future asset prices, given by a continuous semimartingale. Such an arbitrage strategy can be constructed as a process of finite variation that satisfies a seemingly inno...
متن کاملThe Effect of Short Selling on Bubbles and Crashes in Experimental Spot Asset Markets
We study the effect of allowing short selling on the efficiency of the pricing mechanism and the incidence of price bubbles in laboratory asset markets. We report an experiment that illustrates that allowing a sufficiently large short selling capacity results in a substantial reduction in the magnitude and duration of bubbles, but also leads to sustained episodes of busts, during which prices a...
متن کاملEquilibrium and arbitrage in incomplete asset markets with fixed prices
At arbitrary prices of commodities and assets, fix-price equilibria exist under weak assumptions: endowments need not satisfy an interiority condition, utility functions need only satisfy a very weak monotonicity requirement, and the asset return matrix allows for redundant assets. Prices of assets may permit arbitrage. At equilibrium, though restricted through endogenously determined trading c...
