Speculative Bubbles and Crashes in Stock Markets: An Interacting-Agent Model of Speculative Activity
In this paper we present an interacting-agent model of speculative activity explaining bubbles and crashes in stock markets. We describe stock markets through an infinite-range Ising model to formulate the tendency of traders getting influenced by the investment attitude of other traders. Bubbles and crashes are understood and described qualitatively and quantitatively in terms of the classical...
متن کاملOverconfidence and Speculative Bubbles∗
Motivated by the behavior of asset prices, trading volume and price volatility during historical episodes of asset price bubbles, we present a continuous time equilibrium model where overconfidence generates disagreements among agents regarding asset fundamentals. With short-sale constraints, an asset owner has an option to sell the asset to other overconfident agents when they have more optimi...
متن کاملBubbles and Market Crashes
We present a dynamical theory of asset price bubbles that exhibits the appearance of bubbles and their subsequent crashes. We show that when speculative trends dominate over fundamental beliefs, bubbles form, leading to the growth of asset prices away from their fundamental value. This growth makes the system increasingly susceptible to any exogenous shock, thus eventually precipitating a crash...
متن کاملBubbles and Crashes
These notes consider Abreu and Brunnermeier’s (2003) paper on the failure of rational arbitrage in asset markets. Recall that the “no-trade” theorem states that speculative bubbles cannot exist in a world with only rational traders even if there is asymmetric information, so long as these traders share a common prior. Believers in the efficient market hypothesis argue that even if there are als...
متن کاملBubbles, Crashes and Risk
In an asset-pricing model, risk-averse agents need to forecast the conditional variance of a stock’s return. A near-rational restricted perceptions equilibrium exists in which agents believe prices follow a random walk with a conditional variance that is self-fulfilling. When agents estimate risk in real-time, recurrent bubbles and crashes can arise. These effect are stronger when agents allow ...
