Abstract:
This paper analyses a temporary financial market equilibrium by considering a two-period model of asset pricing with s securities, one riskless bond, and a continuum of heterogeneous agents with different preferences, endowments, and beliefs. Investors' objectives are to maximize the expected utility of the next period wealth. In this paper, after making certain assumptions, I show the existence of a competitive financial market equilibrium.
