Abstract
In a one-sector optimal growth model with uncertainty about production optimal capital stocks converge in distribution to a stochastic modified golden rule [see, for example Brock and Mirman (1972, 1973)]. We show that such a result cannot be obtained, in general, if in addition to the random one-period shocks to production there is also a lasting shock to the production function at some random date in the future; however, the conditional optimal capital stocks ‘bunch together’ over time, i.e., a turnpike result for optimal programs is proved.
