Asset Pricing
Winner of the prestigious Paul A Samuelson Award for scholarly writing on lifelong financial security John Cochrane's Asset Pricing now appears in a revised edition that unifies and brings the science of asset pricing up to date for advanced students and professionals Cochrane traces the pricing of all assets back to a single idea--price equals expected discounted payoff--that captures the macro-economic risks underlying each security's value By using a single stochastic discount factor rather than a separate set of tricks for each asset class Cochrane builds a unified account of modern asset pricing He presents applications to stocks bonds and options Each model--consumption based CAPM multifactor term structure and option pricing--is derived as a different specification of the discounted
factor The discount factor framework also leads to a state-space geometry for mean-variance frontiers and asset pricing models It puts payoffs in different states of nature on the axes rather than mean and variance of return leading to a new and conveniently linear geometrical representation of asset pricing ideas Cochrane approaches empirical work with the Generalized Method of Moments which studies sample average prices and discounted payoffs to determine whether price does equal expected discounted payoff He translates between the discount factor GMM and state-space language and the beta mean-variance and regression language common in empirical work and earlier theory The book also includes a review of recent empirical work on return predictability value and other puzzles in the cross
section and equity premium puzzles and their resolution Written to be a summary for academics and professionals as well as a textbook this book condenses and advances recent scholarship in financial economics
