This book investigates an economic theory proposing that the inability to borrow against unpredictable future income may substantially affect an individual's risk-sharing and asset pricing behavior, particularly in relation to stock and bond investments. The author presents a thorough analysis of an economy in which individuals cannot write contracts contingent on future income realizations, demonstrating the impact of incomplete markets on the relationship between idiosyncratic and aggregate risks. Drawing upon historical data, the author constructs empirical models of individual income and dividends to calibrate the theoretical model, leading to valuable insights. The combination of theoretical and empirical approaches provides a comprehensive examination of the significance of incomplete markets in shaping investment decisions and the resulting fluctuations in asset prices.
