As part of its CREA Lunch Seminar in Economics Series, the Centre for Research in Economics & Management at the University of Luxembourg is organising the lecture ‘On the Dynamics of Speculation in a Model of Bubbles and Manias’ on Tuesday, 14 March 2017.
The seminar will be hosted by by Manuel Santos (joint work with Carlos J. Pérez). Santos is the James L. Knight Chair, Department of Economics, University of Miami. His areas of expertise are macroeconomics, finance, and managerial incentives.
The pair will present an asset-trading model of ‘boom and bust’ with homogeneous information. Their model builds on narrative accounts of asset pricing bubbles that hint at the interaction between behavioral and rational traders.
The CREA Lunch Seminar in Economics series is supported by the FNR’s RESCOM programme.
