Do Oil Futures Prices Help Predict Future Oil Prices?
2004 and by more than 40% since the beginning of 2005.Though the U.S. economy has apparently absorbed this supply shock well so far, the path of future oil prices remains a concern for monetary policymakers. Higher oil prices can damp demand, as consumers and firms spend more of their budgets on oil-related products and less on other goods and services. Furthermore, if higher oil prices are pas...
متن کاملRisk premia in crude oil futures prices
If commercial producers or financial investors use futures contracts to hedge against commodity price risk, the arbitrageurs who take the other side of the contracts may receive compensation for their assumption of nondiversifiable risk in the form of positive expected returns from their positions. We show that this interaction can produce an affine factor structure to commodity futures prices,...
متن کاملAsset Prices in a Heterogenous-Agent Economy with Portfolio Constraints∗
Our objective in this article is to study analytically the effect of borrowing constraints on asset returns in an economy where agents are heterogenous with respect to their risk aversion. We use asymptotic analysis to characterize the equilibrium in a general equilibrium exchange economy with an arbitrary number of agents who differ in their risk aversion and face limits on borrowing. We find ...

We argue that the inflationary consequences of a rise in oil prices depend upon the policy response of the monetary authorities. They can ameliorate the short term impacts on output, but only at the cost of higher inflation. In the short term the size and distributi...
متن کاملInstitutional Investment Constraints and Stock Prices

We find that institutions tend not to buy more of a stock with good news that they already overweight; they are reluctant to sell a stock with bad news that they already underweight. Stocks with good news over...
