Default Re: Behavioral Finance

Well, investors are not rational, they are not the "rational agents" which is the assumption of 99% of finance papers. Assuming investors are rational is like saying every poker player plays perfect poker. So one should study behavioral finance to see the ways investors stray from "rational" behavior.
