Abstract

I use a non-separable utility function with non-housing consumption and consumption of housing services, which generates an intertemporal composition risk, besides the traditional consumption growth risk. The composition risk has effects for the valuation of cash flow growth fluctuations far into the future due to the persistence of consumption growth and housing services growth. I provide a closed form solution for the valuation function despite the non-separability. This allows me to quantify the price of risk in the long-run with inputs from an indirect inference estimation of the endowment process. I evaluate the different exposure to long-run risk of a cross section of portfolios of securities, and characterize the price of risk for different investment horizons. The model also explains the spread of the returns to different portfolios sorted in book to market and required housing returns, at different investment horizons.
