Market Crashes and Collective Rationality

Beschreibung

Sudden crashes are common features of financial markets, worldwide. Those sudden crashes cannot be explained by current economic theories, which essentially rely on changes in fundamentals. Psychological factors are a natural alternative explanation to those phenomena. In this book, we investigate those psychological factors and their impact on financial crises, with a strong focus on collective rationality. Concepts such as herd behavior and pack behavior are studied, together with their implications for financial stability.
