Stock-Bond Covariance
What accounts for the high-frequency time variation in the risk exposure of a long
safe bond?
Inflation dynamics? For instance, Campbell, Sunderam and Viceira (2017). But note
calculation with TIPS.
Here: a shock to the price of risk affects stock and bond returns in
opposite directions.
Therefore, times when price of risk is volatile see a more negative
stock-bond covariance.

Mechanism: Precautionary Savings and Risk Premium
Consider asset pricing models where log SDF can be represented by
mt,t+1 = −at − γtσ t+1.
The log risk-free rate is
rf
t,t+1 = at −
1
2
γ2
t σ2
.
Risk premium on a payout that depends on σd t+1 is
RPt,t+1 = γtσ σd.
Change in γt moves risky and safe asset prices in opposite directions.

Model Intuition
Two state variables: 1) aggregate dividend growth rate 2) price of risk process.
Price of risk follows a CIR process, meaning its volatility is proportional to the square
root of the level.
The share of return volatility stemming from the two distinct sources
varies over time.
Both the aggregate stock market and long Treasury have constant risk loadings in the
model.
Yet their covariance changes with the price of risk process.
5 / 28
Empirics Overview
In the recent data, the stock-bond covariance:
1. Has a level effect on the term structure of safe rates.
2. Accounts for the contemporaneous level of credit spreads.
3. Predicts with a negative sign excess stock and bond returns going forward.
4. Is low when risk-neutral probability of FTQ in Treasuries is high.
5. Predicts issuance of investment grade corporate bonds; accounts for sectoral holdings
of Treasuries.
6. Co-moves with covariance calculated in other developed economies.
6 / 28
Calibration Overview
Data generated according to the model solution:
1. Matches the empirical moments of stock-bond covariance and bond beta—assuming
an SDF that can match the aggregate equity risk premium.
2. Exhibits a two factor term structure with level and slope factor reflecting empirical
counterparts.
Risk compensation determines level of interest rates while dividend growth rate
determines the slope of interest rates.
Just like in the data, negative stock-bond covariance times see lower interest rates.

Model Setup
Setup follows Lettau and Wachter (2007): work with exogenously specified
price of risk process.
Log changes in the aggregate endowment process follow
∆dt+1 = g + zt +
√
xtσd t+1 −

σ2
dxt.
Log SDF is given by
mt,t+1 = a − ρ(g + zt) − γ
√
xtσc t+1.
ρ is akin to 1/EIS.
γ
√
xt is akin to risk aversion.
14 / 28
Price of Risk Process
xt evolves according to a Cox, Ingersoll Jr. and Ross (1985) process
xt+1 = (1 − φx)¯x + φxxt +
√
xtσηηt+1,
Dividend growth rate zt evolves according to an AR(1) process
zt+1 = φzzt + σξξt+1.
The ηt+1 and ξt+1 shocks are not directly priced by the SDF—only t+1 is.
15 / 28
Solving Recursively for Risky Asset Prices
In order to solve for stock prices let’s define the price dividend ratio of a
maturity n dividend strip and guess the functional form
Fn,t =
Pn,t
Dt
= exp A(n) + B(n)xt + C(n)zt .
Stock prices have to satisfy
Fn,t = Et exp{mt,t+1}
Dt+1
Dt
Fn−1,t+1 .
The pricing equation implies
exp A(n) + B(n)xt + C(n)zt =
= E exp {a − ρ(g + zt) − γ

Closed-form Expressions for Risky Asset Prices

Literature
Bekaert and Grenadier (1999) study joint pricing of stocks and bonds in affine
economies. Don’t address time variation in stock-bond covariance, however.
Kozak (2015) proposes an explanation using a purely real, production-based model.
Two-tree model intuition.
Campbell et al. (2017) attribute the stock-bond covariance dynamics to a change in
the covariance between nominal rates and the real economy.
Campbell et al. (2018) explore the implications of a changing covariance between
inflation and output using a habits based model of investor preferences.
Pflueger et al. (2018) show that the relative valuations of volatile stocks have a strong
relationship with the real interest rate.
Main measure—difference between average book-to-market ratios of high and low
volatility stocks—is strongly correlated (.48) with the stock-bond covariance studied
here.

Precautionary Savings
Inherent non-linearity in the precautionary savings term makes it cumbersome to
work with.
Here a particular functional form assumption allows to solve for both PS and RP in
closed form.
Underlines tight connection between risk dynamics and the safe term structure. Thus
escapes the separation between macro quantities and risk premia studied in Tallarini
(2000).
Safe rates are currently low. How much on account of µc, how much on
account of γt?
Thank You!

Precautionary Savings and the Stock-Bond Covariance

  • 1. Precautionary Savings and the Stock-Bond Covariance Toomas Laarits NYU Stern Eesti Pank, Avatud Seminar 6/2/2020.
  • 2. Stock-Bond Covariance −8 −6 −4 −2 0 2 1990/1 2000/1 2010/1 2020/1 Cov(Tr 10y, St.) Cov(TIPS 10y, St.)=⇒ Correlations =⇒ Long History 1 / 28

  • 4. Stock-Bond Covariance What accounts for the high-frequency time variation in the risk exposure of a long safe bond? Inflation dynamics? For instance, Campbell, Sunderam and Viceira (2017). But note calculation with TIPS. Here: a shock to the price of risk affects stock and bond returns in opposite directions. Therefore, times when price of risk is volatile see a more negative stock-bond covariance. 3 / 28
  • 5. Mechanism: Precautionary Savings and Risk Premium Consider asset pricing models where log SDF can be represented by mt,t+1 = −at − γtσ t+1. The log risk-free rate is rf t,t+1 = at − 1 2 γ2 t σ2 . Risk premium on a payout that depends on σd t+1 is RPt,t+1 = γtσ σd. Change in γt moves risky and safe asset prices in opposite directions. 4 / 28
  • 6. Model Intuition Two state variables: 1) aggregate dividend growth rate 2) price of risk process. Price of risk follows a CIR process, meaning its volatility is proportional to the square root of the level. The share of return volatility stemming from the two distinct sources varies over time. Both the aggregate stock market and long Treasury have constant risk loadings in the model. Yet their covariance changes with the price of risk process. 5 / 28
  • 7. Empirics Overview In the recent data, the stock-bond covariance: 1. Has a level effect on the term structure of safe rates. 2. Accounts for the contemporaneous level of credit spreads. 3. Predicts with a negative sign excess stock and bond returns going forward. 4. Is low when risk-neutral probability of FTQ in Treasuries is high. 5. Predicts issuance of investment grade corporate bonds; accounts for sectoral holdings of Treasuries. 6. Co-moves with covariance calculated in other developed economies. 6 / 28
  • 8. Calibration Overview Data generated according to the model solution: 1. Matches the empirical moments of stock-bond covariance and bond beta—assuming an SDF that can match the aggregate equity risk premium. 2. Exhibits a two factor term structure with level and slope factor reflecting empirical counterparts. Risk compensation determines level of interest rates while dividend growth rate determines the slope of interest rates. Just like in the data, negative stock-bond covariance times see lower interest rates. 7 / 28

  • 17. Model Setup Setup follows Lettau and Wachter (2007): work with exogenously specified price of risk process. Log changes in the aggregate endowment process follow ∆dt+1 = g + zt + √ xtσd t+1 − 1 2 σ2 dxt. Log SDF is given by mt,t+1 = a − ρ(g + zt) − γ √ xtσc t+1. ρ is akin to 1/EIS. γ √ xt is akin to risk aversion. 14 / 28
  • 18. Price of Risk Process xt evolves according to a Cox, Ingersoll Jr. and Ross (1985) process xt+1 = (1 − φx)¯x + φxxt + √ xtσηηt+1, Dividend growth rate zt evolves according to an AR(1) process zt+1 = φzzt + σξξt+1. The ηt+1 and ξt+1 shocks are not directly priced by the SDF—only t+1 is. 15 / 28
  • 19. Solving Recursively for Risky Asset Prices In order to solve for stock prices let’s define the price dividend ratio of a maturity n dividend strip and guess the functional form Fn,t = Pn,t Dt = exp A(n) + B(n)xt + C(n)zt . Stock prices have to satisfy Fn,t = Et exp{mt,t+1} Dt+1 Dt Fn−1,t+1 . The pricing equation implies exp A(n) + B(n)xt + C(n)zt = = E exp {a − ρ(g + zt) − γ √ xtσc t+1} exp g + zt + √ xtσd t+1 − 1 2 σ2 dxt exp A(n−1) + B(n−1)xt+1 + C(n−1)zt+1 . 16 / 28
  • 20. Closed-form Expressions for Risky Asset Prices Can recursively solve the pricing equation to derive closed form expressions: =⇒ A(n) = a − ρg + g + A(n−1) + B(n−1)(1 − φx)¯x + 1 2 C2 (n−1)σ2 ξ =⇒ B(n) = B(n−1)φx − γσcσd + 1 2 B2 (n−1)σ2 η + 1 2 γ2 σ2 c =⇒ C(n) = C(n−1)φz − ρ + 1. Boundary condition implies A(0) = B(0) = C(0) = 0. The market return is calculated as Rt,t+1 = P m t+1 Dt+1 + 1 P m t Dt Dt+1 Dt . =⇒ Safe Asset Prices =⇒ Solution Graph 17 / 28

  • 30. Literature Bekaert and Grenadier (1999) study joint pricing of stocks and bonds in affine economies. Don’t address time variation in stock-bond covariance, however. Kozak (2015) proposes an explanation using a purely real, production-based model. Two-tree model intuition. Campbell et al. (2017) attribute the stock-bond covariance dynamics to a change in the covariance between nominal rates and the real economy. Campbell et al. (2018) explore the implications of a changing covariance between inflation and output using a habits based model of investor preferences. Pflueger et al. (2018) show that the relative valuations of volatile stocks have a strong relationship with the real interest rate. Main measure—difference between average book-to-market ratios of high and low volatility stocks—is strongly correlated (.48) with the stock-bond covariance studied here. 26 / 28

  • 32. Precautionary Savings Inherent non-linearity in the precautionary savings term makes it cumbersome to work with. Here a particular functional form assumption allows to solve for both PS and RP in closed form. Underlines tight connection between risk dynamics and the safe term structure. Thus escapes the separation between macro quantities and risk premia studied in Tallarini (2000). Safe rates are currently low. How much on account of µc, how much on account of γt? Thank You! 28 / 28
