|
|
"For their seminal contributions to
understanding the relationship of stock returns and business
fluctuations." |
|
|
| Comment: If
the Nobel Committee wishes to recognize achievements in finance, Fama
and French are logical choices, especially for their co-authored
papers in the 1980s and early 1990s that examined whether stock
returns could be predicted by using both macro- and microeconomic
indicators, representing the economy as a whole and the business of
individual firms, respectively. |

Robert C. Waggoner Professor of
Economics
Harvard University

|
"For his pioneering contributions in
empirical macroeconomics, ranging over many fields, but especially for
work in public debt in the 1970s." |
|
|
|
Comment: Barro
has been for two or three decades one of the most-cited economists in
the ISI database, (as has Fama, above). He has written more than a
dozen of high-impact papers, several dealing with the determinants of
economic growth and with monetary policy.

"For outstanding research in behavior and
decision-making that has formed a bridge between economics and
psychology." |

| Comment:
Kahneman, who worked closely with the late Amos Tversky, and Thaler
– as well as others – have revealed in revolutionary books and
articles that emotion and other psychological factors color and even
determine specific investment decisions. |
