Evidence for and against market efficiency with a supported conclusion. charlesafriyie1_1 https://padlet.com/uniofglos/8h5o7hkway7g/wish/154837885 2017-02-20 00:19:50 UTC https://padlet.com/uniofglos/8h5o7hkway7g/wish/154837885 The Efficient Market Hypothesis (Skylanders) https://padlet.com/uniofglos/8h5o7hkway7g/wish/155770851 It suggests that you cannot beat the market due to the fact that share prices reflect all information available. Based on this one person should not have more information than anyone else and should have no advantage over the market.

The opposite argument to this is that a strong market is never achievable because past,present and private information is required and this is illegal due it being unfair. E.g. if you worked for a company you would have private information this could be used for things such as insider trading.

In addition to this it has been found that days of the week, seasons, times of the day affects rationality and therefore effects the efficiency of the markets. This leads to behavioural finance that highlights things such as human error and cognitive errors suggesting that we are not good at decision making ]]> 2017-02-23 15:07:44 UTC https://padlet.com/uniofglos/8h5o7hkway7g/wish/155770851 (Bagel) Markets are efficient according to recent studies (articles from moodle). Investors are rational most of the time and semi-strong efficiency dominates the market. However, over-reaction and or under-reaction to information can cause anomalies in the market which contradicts the EMH due to reflect a irrational behaviour from investors. Nevertheless, those anomalies tend to go way in a long term. https://padlet.com/uniofglos/8h5o7hkway7g/wish/155770866 2017-02-23 15:07:47 UTC https://padlet.com/uniofglos/8h5o7hkway7g/wish/155770866 Girls https://padlet.com/uniofglos/8h5o7hkway7g/wish/155773207 An efficient market generates categories of events that individually suggests that prices over-react to information.

The different degree of efficiency on stock markets are: strong, weak, and semi-strong.

An effective hypothesis used is random walk, this suggests that the stock market cannot be predicted from past activity meaning they believe stocks are random and unpredictable.]]> 2017-02-23 15:12:45 UTC https://padlet.com/uniofglos/8h5o7hkway7g/wish/155773207 Greg https://padlet.com/uniofglos/8h5o7hkway7g/wish/156360332 For: ]]> 2017-02-27 10:58:38 UTC https://padlet.com/uniofglos/8h5o7hkway7g/wish/156360332 The 2 Musketeers https://padlet.com/uniofglos/8h5o7hkway7g/wish/156360404 2017-02-27 10:59:09 UTC https://padlet.com/uniofglos/8h5o7hkway7g/wish/156360404 Problem Solvers https://padlet.com/uniofglos/8h5o7hkway7g/wish/156360930 a]]> 2017-02-27 11:03:38 UTC https://padlet.com/uniofglos/8h5o7hkway7g/wish/156360930 Kraft https://padlet.com/uniofglos/8h5o7hkway7g/wish/164159037 2017-04-02 12:44:49 UTC https://padlet.com/uniofglos/8h5o7hkway7g/wish/164159037 KRAFT https://padlet.com/uniofglos/8h5o7hkway7g/wish/164159245 2017-04-02 12:48:33 UTC https://padlet.com/uniofglos/8h5o7hkway7g/wish/164159245
