After the 2007–9 credit crisis, caused by a crash in housing prices (the bursting of an alleged housing price bubble), asset price bubbles received considerable attention in the financial press and regulatory arena.11 See William Dudley, “Asset Bubbles and the Implications for Central Bank Policy”, speech, April 7, 2010 (available at http://www.ny.frb.org). Before this episode, however, the modelling of asset price bubbles had a long history in economics.
Classical economics studied the existence and characterisation of bubbles in discrete-time, infinite- and finite-horizon, equilibrium models. It has been shown that bubbles cannot exist in finite-horizon rational expectation models (Santos and Woodford 1997; Tirole 1982). They can arise, however, in markets where traders behave myopically (Tirole 1982), where there are irrational traders (De Long et al 1990), in infinite-horizon growing economies with rational traders (O’Connell and Zeldes 1988; Tirole 1985; Weil 1990), economies where rational traders have differential beliefs and when arbitrageurs cannot synchronise trades (Abreu and Brunnermeier 2003) or when there are short-sale/borrowing constraints (Santos and Woodford
