Gresham College Lectures
The Psychology of the Stock Market
•
Gresham College
The Efficient Market Hypothesis argues that stock markets are rational - they take into account all relevant information, and incorporate it in an unbiased way.
This talk will present evidence that stock prices are instead driven by human psychology. The market overreacts to some types of information yet underreacts to others; it is driven by emotions rather than purely economic fundamentals.
The lecture gives profitable trading strategies that investors can use to exploit these biases.
A lecture by Alex Edmans 22 September
The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website:
