open access: yesThe Journal of Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study aversion to model ambiguity and misspecification in dynamic portfolio choice. Risk‐averse investors (relative risk aversion γ>1$\gamma > 1$) fear return persistence, while risk‐tolerant investors (0<γ<1$0<\gamma <1$) fear mean reversion, when confronting model misspecification concerns of identically and independently distributed (IID)

Patterns of Regional Firm Mobility in Germany: Urbanization, Suburbanization, or Counterurbanization?

open access: yesJournal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
