Emmett L. Bennett, Jr. Offprint Collection
The scholarly library of Emmett L. Bennett, Jr. compiled in the course of his Editorship of the journal Nestor (founded in 1957). The collection includes scholarly publications (offprints) and manuscripts sent by prospective authors to Dr. Bennett. Includes a Finding Aid (PDF and Word) and Catalog (an Excel document for each of two record groups: offprints collected up to 1995, and offprints collected from 1995-2011). Both the Finding Aid and Catalog are provided to facilitate researchers' searches for offprints by author, title, journal, year, and subject.Classic
Interview with Hansen Matthews
Born and raised in Wilmington, Hansen Matthews,Jr. graduated from East Carolina Univ. School of Business in 1980. His father attended Wilmington College, and mother a Meredith College graduate, and long time teacher in Wilmington. Two of his daughters are now attending Meredith. In 1987 he partnered with with 2 other longtime residents to form the very successful Maus, Warwich, Matthews, Commercial Real Estate. This was in 1987, when the first wave of great changes became evident in southeastern NC. Working with outdated 1948 zoning laws, and boundaries ever changing, the partnership saw great opportunity for advancment, in bringing needed commercial oppotunities for jobs and tax dollars to support quality of life in the near future. Mr. Matthews agrees that preserving history is important, especially in the downtown area, but feels that controlled growth and new structures to support this is just as important. Read his view of what is needed, when, and how it can be done. A very analytical mind

Evaluating Asset-Pricing Models Using The Hansen-Jagannathan Bound: A Monte Carlo Investigation
We conduct Monte Carlo experiments to examine whether the bound proposed by Hansen and Jagannathan (1991) is a useful device for evaluating asset pricing models. Specifically, we use recently developed statistical tests, which are based on a 'distance' between the model and the Hansen-Jagannathan bound, to compute the rejection rates of true models. We provide finite-sample critical values for asset pricing models with time separable preferences, and show how they depend upon nuisance parameters—risk aversion and the rate of time preference. Further, we show that the finite-sample distribution of the test statistic associated with the risk-neutral case is extreme, in the sense that critical values based on this distribution will deliver type I errors no larger than intended—regardless of risk aversion or the rate of time preference. Extending the analysis to accommodate other preferences, we show that in the state non-separable case, the small-sample distributions of the test statistics are influenced significantly by the degree of intertemporal substitution, but not by attitudes toward risk. For habit formation preferences, the small-sample distributions are strongly influenced by the habit parameter. However, the maximal-size critical values for time-separable preferences are appropriate for habit formation as well as state non-separable preferences. We conclude that with these critical values the HJ bound is indeed a useful evaluation device. We then use the critical values to evaluate three asset pricing models using U.S. data. We find evidence against the time-separable model and mixed evidence on the remaining two models.
