This study provides an explanation for the emergence of power laws in asset trading volume and returns. We consider a two‐state model with binary actions, where traders infer other traders' private signals regarding the value of an asset from their actions and adjust their own behavior accordingly. We prove that this leads to power laws for equilibrium volume and returns whenever the number of traders is large and the signals for asset value are sufficiently noisy. We also provide numerical results showing that the model reproduces observed distributions of daily stock volume and returns.

A noisy rational expectations model of asset trading is extended to incorporate costs of information acquisition and expectation formation. Because of the information costs, how much information to acquire becomes an important decision. Agents make this decision by choosing an expectations strategy about the future value of information. Because expectation formation is costly, agents often choose strategies that are simpler (and thus cheaper) than rational expectations. The model's dynamics can be expressed in terms of the market precision, which represents the amount of information acquired by the average agent. Under certain conditions, market precision follows an unstable and highly irregular time path. This irregularity directly affects observable market quantities. In particular, simulated time series for return volatility and trading volume display a copersistence similar to that found in actual financial data.

We study asset markets and wealth dynamics in the economy with heterogeneous beliefs and risk of default. Agents can trade a full set of Arrow securities but are allowed to default on their delivery promises. Financial markets rationally subject agents to the endogenous “no-default” borrowing limits. Because of the rich menu of financial assets traded in the market speculation opportunities are plentiful. Financial wealth is volatile and the endogenous borrowing limits are always active. Variance of the asset returns is amplified. The asset trading volume is substantial and volatile.
