Title

Spectral Asset Pricing

Abstract

I discuss new time/scale methods and their role in extracting frequency-specific information for the purpose of cross-sectional and time-series asset pricing. Particular emphasis is placed on the mapping between the suggested techniques and aggregation. I show when aggregation (the typical way in which frequency-specific dynamics are captured in finance) may fail as a frequency-extraction mechanism. The pricing of consumption risk is used throughout to illustrate the proposed methods.
