The Efficient Markets Hypothesis

The talk explores the efficient markets hypothesis (EMH) and its effects on today's financial markets http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/the-efficient-markets-hypothesis
The essence of financial prices is that they should reflect all publicly available information. This means that they should have no predictive power for future financial prices. But learning, fads, fashions and herds tend to throw up anomalies for this position. And the role of incomplete or asymmetric information should not be overlooked after the crisis. Can the hypothesis be rescued?
The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/the-efficient-markets-hypothesis
