one can have a model with more than 2 periods and 1 state of
nature or more as well (all the contingent goods are traded at
t = 0 and not later, these are commitments to deliver physical
goods at a certain date t in a certain state s in exchange of
receiving something at a date t 00 1 in a state s 0 )

Sequential Trade
Preliminary remark: Mas-Colell et alii present an example of
sequential trade (19D) before the introduction of asset markets
(19E). The case carried in 19D (Definition 19D1 and Proposition
19D1) is an example of a model with asset markets (where the
Arrow assets only are available)
This is why I skip most of this section. I give 2 remarks only
Remark 1
Opening of the markets at t = 1 is useless
I
when the spot markets exist, not all the markets at t = 0 are
necessary for the equ alloc to be PO. Markets at t = 0 are
required to transfer wealth across states only (not to exchange
goods within the same state).
Asset Markets
Consider an exchange economy with I consumers, L physical
goods, S states of nature, K assets
