Do bond credit ratings suffer from “ratings inflation”? That's an interesting research topic actually. |

Are there ways to measure the risk aversion of a representative investor, based on publicly available market data? The paper provides a relevant "operational" prediction, even if it's more than 40 years old - it's a theorem, and as such it has validity that transcends time. You can question its assumptions, but you can't question its predictions given its assumptions. Sometimes, you can't even question the assumptions either... OP's initial question is answered in my post among others, I believe - with several pointers to the literature which we all provided. Clearly, one has to understand what he's going to estimate (a parameter that defines a utility function) and how (you need an RA model), if at all. |

Are there ways to measure the risk aversion of a representative investor, based on publicly available market data? @DirkEddelbuettel the most unremarkable of events: the Proof That Properly Discounted Present Values of Assets Vibrate Randomly. I join those that are not all that proud of the field - but I'm not ready to scrap it altogether. |
