Abstract: | In this paper, we examine the properties of subjective probabilities induced by optimal expectations. We show that investors who follow optimal expectations underweigh small probabilities and overweigh large probabilities in a simple binary economy. This indicates that the subjective probabilities induced by optimal expectations are incompatible with experimentally observed results under the rank dependent probability assumption. |
