''Portfolio Selection with Endogenous Estimation Risk'' |
( 2006, Vol. 7 No.6 ) |
|
|
I explore how investors allocate mental effort to learn about the mean return of a number of assets and I analyze how this allocation changes the portfolio selection problem. I show that the endogeneity of estimation risk alters the comparative statics of portfolio choice and provides an explanation to Huberman's (2001) empirical findings that “Familiarity Breeds Investment”. |
