Idiosyncratic RiskMatters
- Journal of Finance
, 2003
"... This paper takes a new look at the predictability of stock market returns with risk measures.We ¢nd a signi¢cant positive relation between average stock variance (largely idiosyncratic) and the return on the market. In contrast, the variance of the market has no forecasting power for the market retu ..."

Idiosyncratic Risk and the Manager ∗
, 2013
"... Compensating a manager with their own firm’s equity induces effort but also exposes the manager to firm-specific risk. Consequently, the discount rate of the undiversified manager differs from that of a diversified shareholder, resulting in a distortion in the optimal investment and financing polici ..."

Asset Pricing with Idiosyncratic Risk and Overlapping Generations
, 2001
"... Constantinides and Due (1996) show that for idiosyncratic risk to matter for asset pricing the shocks must (i) be highly persistent and (ii) become more volatile during economic contractions. We show that data from the Panel Study on Income Dynamics (PSID) are consistent with these requirements. Our ..."

Idiosyncratic Risk and Aggregate Employment Dynamics
, 2001
"... This paper studies how producers ’ idiosyncratic risks impact aggregate employment dynamics when there is a trade-off between workers ’ productivity and costs of job creation and destruction. In our analysis, increasing idiosyncratic risk induces producers to move workers out of structured jobs that ..."

Idiosyncratic Risk and Aggregate Employment Dynamics
, 2000
"... This paper studies how producers’ idiosyncratic risks a¤ect an industry’s aggregate dynamics in an environment where certainty equivalence fails. In the model, producers can place workers in two types of jobs, organized and temporary. Workers are less productive in temporary jobs, but creating an or ..."

Idiosyncratic Risk, Investor Base, and Returns
"... Using four different proxies for a firm’s investor base we demonstrate that idiosyncratic risk premiums are larger for neglected stocks and smaller or economically insignificant for visible stocks. Since neglected stocks have greater idiosyncratic volatility (IV), the total IV risk premium (price × ..."

ESSAYS ON INCOME TAXATION AND IDIOSYNCRATIC RISK
, 2012
"... I study the role of heterogeneity and idiosyncratic risk in Macroeconomics, and their implications on problems of income taxation. In the first chapter, I study the effects of redistributive taxation in an incomplete market economy with heteroge-neous agents and idiosyncratic risk. I focus on the ro ..."

Rule in Economies with Uninsurable Idiosyncratic Risks ∗
"... The paper studies asset prices and capital accumulation in a monetary economy with nondiversifiable idiosyncratic risks. A government issued unbacked currency is introduced into agent’s preferences in a dynamic GEI (General Equilibrium with Incomplete market) model with CARA preferences and normal d ..."

When Does Idiosyncratic Risk Really Matter?
, 2009
"... The evidence on the relation between idiosyncratic risk and future market return is at odds with the theory in Merton (1987). We argue that this is because conventional idiosyncratic risk measures are too noisy that consequently camouflage the true pricing relation suggested by the theory in empiric ..."
