Minor Issues in *Asset Pricing with Incomplete Markets*
Hello again. Some minor typos in Asset Pricing with Incomplete Markets
-
For the pessimists' beliefs, you copied the optimists' beliefs.
-
For
price_optimistic_beliefs()(and pessimistic) you specifytol=1e-16in during inputs but the code compares to1e-12. Also there seems to be no need to pre-assignp_oldbefore the loop starts. -
I didn't quite get why the price of the asset had to be weakly greater than 1, as the code assumes. What's the intuition for this restriction?
Thanks as always.
Thanks @spspitze, much appreciated. @Harveyt47, would you mind to take a look?
Hi @jstac yep I'll have a look at it now.
@spspitze is right the pessimists transition matrix here should be [[2/3, 1/3], [2/3, 1/3]] I believe.
Also we do not use tol in both price_optimistic_beliefs() and price_pessimistic_beliefs(). I'll make a PR
