Growth under uncertainty with experimentation

Article Abstract:

Dynamic experimentation can reduce investment even as more investment generates more information. Conversely, it can increase investment even when less investment yields more information. These were the main findings in a study of the effect of experimentation on the optimal level of the investment decision and on the amount of information gathering, wherein Bayesian learning was introduced into a standard growth model.
