内容简介
······
Half of all Americans have money in the stock market, yet economists can't agree on whether investors and markets are rational and efficient, as modern financial theory assumes, or irrational and inefficient, as behavioral economists believe–and as financial bubbles, crashes, and crises suggest. This is one of the biggest debates in economics and the value or futility of investment management and financial regulation hang on the outcome. In this groundbreaking book, Andrew Lo cuts through this debate with a new framework, the Adaptive Markets Hypothesis, in which rationality and irrationality coexist.
Drawing on psychology, evolutionary biology, neuroscience, artificial intelligence, and other fields, Adaptive Markets shows that the theory of market efficiency isn't wrong but merely incomplete. When markets are unstable, investors react instinctively, creating inefficiencies for others to exploit. Lo's new paradigm explains how financial evolution shapes behavior and markets at the speed of thought–a fact revealed by swings between stability and crisis, profit and loss, and innovation and regulation.
A fascinating intellectual journey filled with compelling stories, Adaptive Markets starts with the origins of market efficiency and its failures, turns to the foundations of investor behavior, and concludes with practical implications–including how hedge funds have become the Galapagos Islands of finance, what really happened in the 2008 meltdown, and how we might avoid future crises.
An ambitious new answer to fundamental questions in economics, Adaptive Markets is essential reading for anyone who wants to know how markets really work.

评论 ······
抱负强大,嫁接进化论,神经学,行为学,和财务学,独创一套理论挑战其他在位理论。用力很猛,材料丰富,文笔一般。
One Of The Smartest Men In The History Of Finance Invented A Fund That Cannot Make Money In Any Environment.
书很长,有点啰嗦。 没耐性的,就细读2, 6, 8 ,10,11,12 章,其实就可以了。
从以往的了解,罗闻全开创了生物金融学这个领域,试图证明损失厌恶等异象为常态,在本书中作者试图挑战有效市场假说,提出了适应性市场假说,这种观点还有待商榷,这本书总体而言还可读,但是并没有达到预期
