economics: agents, information, & markets |

Economists are still discovering
how markets work. This might be little known to the thousands of market
participants who trade in the markets each day. The standard accepted theory
is that markets are efficient in that all relevant information is reflected in
market prices. As a consequence, if markets contain all information available,
any additional research effort leads to returns only enough to compensate the extra
effort used to gather the additional information. And usually it is added that
miss-pricings in the market, if they exist, last for only a short time so you
must be quick to take advantage of them.
