Heterogeneous Households under Uncertainty

open access: greenSSRN Electronic Journal, 2019
I characterize a dynamic economy under general distributions of households’ risk tolerance, endowments, and beliefs about long-term growth. As the economy expands and the stock market rises (a) the fraction of households with declining consumption-share increases; (b) the wealth-share of high risk-tolerant households increases; (c) richer households ...

Heterogeneous Household Responses to Energy Price Shocks

open access: greenSSRN Electronic Journal, 2023
We use survey evidence on reported spending in hypothetical energy price shock scenarios to study novel features of the price elasticity of energy demand and the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) after paying the energy bill. We document several nonlinearities depending on the sign and magnitude of the energy price shock that are economically ...

Macroeconomics and Household Heterogeneity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Abstract The goal of this chapter is to study how, and by how much, household income, wealth, and preference heterogeneity amplify and propagate a macroeconomic shock. We focus on the US Great Recession of 2007–09 and proceed in two steps. First, using data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics, we document the patterns of household income ...

Economic policy uncertainty is proven to have an important effect on household consumption. However, the literature on its transmission mechanism and on comparing the consumption response of urban and rural households, especially in China, is limited. In

MPC Heterogeneity and Household Balance Sheets [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2016
We use sizable lottery prizes in Norwegian administrative panel data to explore how transitory income shocks are spent and saved over time and how households’ marginal propensities to consume (MPCs) vary with household characteristics and shock size. We find that spending peaks in the year of winning and gradually reverts to normal within five years ...

Household Heterogeneity and Real Exchange Rates [PDF]

open access: yesThe Economic Journal, 2006
We assume that individuals can fully insure themselves against cross-country shocks, but not against individual-specifi cs hocks. We consider two particular models of limited risk-sharing: domestically incomplete markets (DI) and private information-Pareto optimal (PIPO) risk-sharing. For each model, we derive a restriction relating the cross-sectional
