To complete the general equilibrium analysis, the expected rate of return on each stock is usually assumed to be equal to the risk-free rate of interest. However, there is a divergence between the moments and sample path behavior of the stock price process. A stock with an exponentially increasing expected value and a positive expected rate of return may have a typical sample path which approaches 0 asymptotically, so that a serious problem arises in the interpretation of asset markets equilibrium. We suggest that by introducing risk adjustment, it is possible to overcome this problemenPeer Reviewed Journal Article10.1080/07362999408809352
