Limited Foresight May Force Cooperation

Review of Economic Studies 2001 68(2), 369-391
This paper considers discounted repeated games with boundedly rational players. In each period, player i chooses his current action on the basis of his forecast about the forthcoming n(i) action profiles; his assessment of the payoffs he will obtain next depends on his state of mind, which is non-deterministic. A limited forecast equilibrium is such that after every history the limited horizon forecasts formed by the players are correct. The set of all limited forecast equilibria is characterized and constructed. Application to the repeated prisoner's dilemma shows that limited foresight may sometimes induce purely cooperative paths while purely non-cooperative paths cannot arise.

Heterogeneous Capital, the Production Function and the Theory of Distribution

Review of Economic Studies 1970 37(3), 407
The notion of capital as a “factor of production”, on which the theories of production and distribution dominant since the latter part of the last century ultimately rely, has been the object of considerable discussion in recent years. As is well known, these theories had their origin in a reformulation in terms of homogeneous land and “intensive” margins, of the Malthusian theory of rent.

Does Hedging Affect Firm Value? Evidence from a Natural Experiment

Review of Financial Studies 2017 30(12), 4083-4132
We exploit an exogenous change in basis risk in the oil and gas industry to analyze the channels through which hedging affects firm value. Using a difference-in-differences framework, we find that firms affected by a basis risk shock reduce investment, have lower valuations, sell assets, and reduce debt. Our findings are driven by firms with ex ante high leverage. Overall, our results provide evidence that reducing the probability of financial distress and underinvestment risk are first-order channels through which hedging affects firm value.
