Risk Sensitive Preferences m t+1 = δ Δc t+1 + U t+1 θ loge t exp { Ut+1 θ } Hansen-Jagannathan: SDF s should be highly volatile Consumption growth is not very volatile in the data.

What about utility?

31 Two states examples p. 9/3 2.2 Log Consumption 2 c t+1 = c t+1 = Time

32 Two states examples p. 9/3 Log Consumption c t+1 = c t+1 = c t+1 = 1 c t+1 = Time

34 Two states examples p. 9/3 Log Consumption 2.2 c t+1 = c t+1 = Utility E 0 [U 1 ] = 1.5, V 0 [U 1 ] = (0.5) 2 E 0 [U 1 ] = 1.5, V 0 [U 1 ] = (0.6) c t+1 = 1 c t+1 = Time Time

37 p. 10/3 Exercise Let log-consumption growth evolve according to Δc t+1 = c 0 + t j=0 ρ j x 0 where c 0 N(0,σc) 2 and x 0 N(0,σx) 2 Let preferences be described by U t = (1 δ)logc t +δθloge t exp { Ut+1 θ } Show that the premium of a claim to consumption in excess of the risk-free rate is increasing in 1. σ 2 x 2. ρ

38 Exercise: hints p. 11/3 By definition the gross return of a claim to consumption is R c t+1 = Pc t+1 +C t+1 P c t = 1+vc t+1 v c t exp{δc t+1 } where v t = P t /C t is the price-consumption ratio. Define the log-stochastic discount factor as m t+1 = log U t/ C t = δ Δc t+1 + U t+1 U t / C t+1 θ loge t exp { Ut+1 θ } [ Solve for v t using E t exp{mt+1 }Rt+1] c = 1. (Hint: vt is constant). Solve for the risk-free rate, R f ] t+1, using E t [exp{m t+1 }R f t+1 = 1. (Hint: R f t+1 is known at date t). Compute the premium.

39 Summary p. 12/3 The equity premium puzzle: consumption is too smooth to make the stochastic discount factor volatile enough in the HJ sense. The Bansal and Yaron recipe: 1. small, but long-lasting shocks to consumption (ρ is large) 2. that investors care about (1/θ = 0) can increase the volatility of the stochastic discount factor. How does this extend to international asset pricing?

40 International Asset Pricing p. 13/3 Facts: 1. Equity Sharpe ratios are large in the cross-section of major industrialized countries International SDF s must be very volatile! 2. Correlation of equity markets returns is large ( 0.6) Puzzling because fundamentals have low correlations (i.e. cash flows are poorly correlated across countries) 3. The volatility of real exchange rates movements is in the 10 15%. The fix for 2+3: the int l correlation of SDF s must be high!
