16 Lecture 07 Multi Period Model (18) Completion with Short-lived Assets Without uncertainty: o No uncertainty and T periods (T can be infinite) o T one period assets, from period 0 to period 1, from period 1 to 2, etc. o Let p t be the price of the short-term bond that begins in period t and matures in period t + 1. Completeness requires Transfer of wealth between any two periods t and t, not just between consecutive periods. o Roll over short-term bonds o Cost of strategy: p t p t+1 p t 1

Go backwards: in event A 1,1, buy one event-state s 2,2 asset for a price p A 2,2. In event A 0, buy p A 2,2 shares of event A 1,1 assets. Today s cost p A 2,2p A 1,1. The payoff is one unit in event s 2,2 and nothing otherwise.

Tradable in each period for p t. o T prices (not simultaneously, but sequentially) o Payoff can be transferred from period t to period t > t by purchasing the bond in period t and selling it in period t.

22 Lecture 07 Multi Period Model (24) Extended Payoff Matrix 6x6 payoff matrix. Asset [1, A 0 ] [2, A 0 ] [1, A 1,1 ] [2, A 1,1 ] [1, A 1,2 ] [2, A 1,2 ] event A 0 p 0 1 p event A 1, p 1,1 p 1,1 p 1,1 p 1,1 0 0 event A 1,2 1 2 p 1,2 p 1, p 1,2 p 1,2 state s 2, state s 2, state s 2, state s 2, This matrix is full rank/regular (and hence the market complete) if the red framed submatrix is regular (of rank 2).
23 Lecture 07 Multi Period Model (25) When Dynamically Complete? Is the red-framed submatrix of rank 2? Payoffs are endogenous future prices There are cases in which (p 1 1,1, p 2 1,1 ) and (p 1 1,2, p 2 1,2 ) are collinear in equilibrium. o Example: If per capita endowment is the same in event A 1,1 and A 1,2, in state s 2,1 and s 2,3, and in state s 2,2 and s 2,4, respectively, and if the probability of reaching state s 1,1 after event A 1,1 is the same as the probability of reaching state s 2,3 after event A 1,2 submatrix is singular (only of rank 1). o then events A 1,1 and A 1,2 are effectively identical, and we may collapse them into a single event.
24 Lecture 07 Multi Period Model (26) Accidental Incompleteness A random square matrix is of full rank (regular). So outside of special cases, the red-framed submatrix is of full ( almost surely ). The 2x2 submatrix may still be singular by accident. In that case it can be made regular again by applying a small perturbation of the returns of the long-lived assets, by perturbing aggregate endowment, the probabilities, or the utility function. Generically, the market is dynamically complete.
25 Lecture 07 Multi Period Model (27) Dynamic Completeness in General branching number = The maximum number of branches fanning out from any event. = number of assets necessary for dynamic completion. Generalization by Duffie and Huang (1985): continuous time continuity of events but a small number of assets is sufficient. The large power of the event space is matched by continuously trading few assets, thereby generating a continuity of trading strategies and of prices.
26 Lecture 07 Multi Period Model (28) Example: Black-Scholes Formula Cox, Ross, Rubinstein binominal tree model of B-S Stock price goes up or down (follows binominal tree) interest rate is constant Market is dynamically complete with 2 assets o Stock o Risk-free asset (bond) Replicate payoff of a call option with (dynamic -hedging) (later more)

31 Lecture 07 Multi Period Model (33) The Fundamental Pricing Formula To price an arbitrary asset x, portfolio of STRIPped cash flows, x 1 j, x 2 j, x j, where x t j denotes the cash-flows in event A t,s The price of asset x j is simply the sum of the prices of its STRIPed payoffs, so p 0 j = E 0 [M t x t j ] t
32 Lecture 07 Multi Period Model (34) Pricing Kernel M t Recall m t+1 = proj(m t+1 < X t+1 >) o That is, there exists h t s.t. m t+1 = X t+1 h t and p t = E t X t+1 m t+1 = E t X t+1 X t+1 h t = E t X t+1 X t+1 h t o h t = E t X t+1 X 1 t+1 p t o Hence, m t+1 = X t+1 E t X t+1 X 1 t+1 p t Define M t+1 = m 1 m 2 m t+1 Part of asset span

35 Lecture 07 Multi Period Model (37) Martingales Let X 1 be a random variable and let x 1 be the realization of this random variable. Let X 2 be another random variable and assume that the distribution of X 2 depends on x 1. Let X 3 be a third random variable and assume that the distribution of X 3 depends on x 1, x 2. Such a sequence of random variables, X 1, X 2, X 3, called a stochastic process. A stochastic process is a martingale if E X t+1 x t, is = x t
36 Lecture 07 Multi Period Model (38) History of the Word Martingale martingale originally refers to a sort of pants worn by Martigaux people living in Martigues located in Provence in the south of France. By analogy, it is used to refer to a strap in equestrian. This strap is tied at one end to the girth of the saddle and at the other end to the head of the horse. It has the shape of a fork and divides in two. In comparison to this division, martingale refers to a strategy which consists in playing twice the amount you lost at the previous round. Now, it refers to any strategy used to increase one's probability to win by respecting the rules. The notion of martingale appears in 1718 (The Doctrine of Chance by Abraham de Moivre) referring to a strategy that makes you sure to win in a fair game. See also

40 Lecture 07 Multi Period Model (42) Risk-Forward Pricing Measure P s t, T be the time- s price of a bond purchased at time t with maturity T, with s < t < T. The fundamental pricing equation is P t t, T = E t [m t+1 P t+1 t + 1, T ] Dividing the pricing equation for a generic asset j by this relation and rearranging we get p t j P t t, T = E t j j P t+1 t + 1, T m t+1 x t+1 + p t+1 E t [m t+1 P t+1 t + 1, T ]P t+1 t + 1, T Where π s F T = π sp t+1,s t+1,t m t+1,s E t [m t+1 P t+1 t+1,t ].

42 Lecture 07 Multi Period Model (44) Ponzi Schemes: Infinite Horizon Max.-problem Infinite horizon allows agents to borrow an arbitrarily large amount without effectively ever repaying, by rolling over debt forever. o Ponzi scheme - allows infinite consumption. Example o Consider an infinite horizon model, no uncertainty, and a complete set of short-lived bonds. o z t is the amount of bonds maturing in period t.
43 Lecture 07 Multi Period Model (45) Ponzi Schemes: Rolling over Debt Forever The following consumption path is possible: c t = y t + 1 Note that agent consumes more than his endowment, y t, in each period, forever financed with ever increasing debt Ponzi schemes o can never be part of an equilibrium. o destroys the existence of a utility maximum because the choice set of an agent is unbounded above. o additional constraint is needed.
44 Lecture 07 Multi Period Model (46) Ponzi Schemes: Transversality The constraint that is typically imposed on top of the budget constraint is the transversality condition, lim t p t bond z t 0 This constraint implies that the value of debt cannot diverge to infinity. o More precisely, it requires that all debt must be redeemed eventually (i.e. in the limit).
45 Lecture 07 Multi Period Model (47) Fundamental and Bubble Component Our formula M t p t = E t M t+1 p t+1 + x t+1 or M t p t = E t M t+1 p t+1 + E t M t+1 x t+1 Solve forward (many solutions) p 0 = t=1 E 0 [M t x t ] fund. value + lim T E 0 M T p T bubble comp.
46 Lecture 07 Multi Period Model (48) Money as a Bubble p 0 = M t + lim M T p T T t=1 bubble comp fundamental value The fundamental value = price in the static-dynamic model. Repeated trading gives rise to the possibility of a bubble. Fiat money as a store of value can be understood as an asset with no dividends. The fundamental value of such an asset would be zero. But in a world of frictions fiat money can have positive value (a bubble) (e.g. in Samuelson 195X, Bewley, 1980). In asset pricing theory, we often rule out bubbles simply by imposing lim M T p T = 0 T

48 Lecture 07 Multi Period Model (50) Time-varying R t (SDF) If one-period SDF m t+1 is not time-varying (i.e. distribution of m t+1 is i.i.d., then o Expectations hypothesis holds o Investment opportunity set does not vary o Corresponding R t+1 of single factor state-price beta model can be easily estimate (because over time one more and more observations about R t+1 ) If not, then m t (or corresponding R t ) o depends on state variable o multiple factor model
49 Lecture 07 Multi Period Model (51) R t depends on State Variable R t = R (z t ), with state variable z t Example: o z t = 1 or 2 with equal probability o Idea: Take all periods with z t = 1 and figure out R (1) Take all periods with z t = 2 and figure out R (2) o Can one do that?
