三位美國經濟學家榮獲年諾貝爾經濟學獎

Three American economists were awarded the Nobel Prize in economics for their work on determining how asset prices change over time.

The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, in a statement Monday, named Eugene Fama, Lars Peter Hansen and Robert Shiller as recipients of the 2013 award for their "empirical analysis of asset prices."

The academy said that while it is hard to predict the price of stocks and bonds over the next few days or weeks, the work by these economists make it possible to foresee the broad course of these prices over longer periods, such as the next three to five years.

Fama and Hansen are professors at the University of Chicago, in Illinios, while Shiller teaches at Yale University in Connecticut.三位美國經濟學家因爲對資產價格隨着時間如何改變的研究而榮獲2013年的諾貝爾經濟學獎。

瑞典皇家科學院星期一發表聲明說， 美國經濟學家尤金.法馬、拉爾斯.彼得.漢森以及羅伯特.席勒因爲對“資產價格的實證分析”而獲獎。

瑞典皇家科學院說，雖然很難準確預測未來幾天或幾周的股票和債券的價格，但這三位學者的研究使人們能夠對三年到五年內的價格趨勢進行預測。

法馬和漢森在伊利諾伊州的芝加哥大學工作，席勒則是位於康涅狄克州的耶魯大學教授。
