摘要： We develop a search-theoretic asset-pricing model in which a divisible asset is valued for its dividend income and liquidity, in the sense that the asset can facilitate exchange for an indivisible consumption good. The distinctive features of our theory are that the dividend value of the asset can be either positive or negative and buyers can choose whether or not to hold the asset. We use the model to study asset prices and trading volume and find that indivisibility and the trading mechanism matters for multiple equilibria as well as asset prices and trading volume. Our theory predicts different relationships between asset prices and its dividend value due to the trade-off between the probability of trade and the cost of holding the asset.
