CHAPTER 12,Behavioral Finance and Technical Analysis,12-2,Behavioral Finance,Conventional Finance,Prices are correct;equal to intrinsic value.Resources are allocated efficiently.Consistent with EMH,Behavioral Finance,What if investors dont behave rationally?,12-3,The Behavioral Critique,Two categories of irrationalities:Investors do not always process information correctly.Result:Incorrect probability distributions of future returns.Even when given a probability distribution of returns,investors may make inconsistent or suboptimal decisions.Result:They have behavioral biases.,12-4,Errors in Information Processing:Misestimating True Probabilities,Forecasting Errors:Too much weight is placed on recent experiences.Overconfidence:Investors overestimate their abilities and the precision of their forecasts.,Conservatism:Investors are slow to update their beliefs and under react to new information.Sample Size Neglect and Representativeness:Investors are too quick to infer a pattern or trend from a small sample.,12-5,Behavioral Biases,Biases result in less than rational decisions,even with perfect information.Examples:Framing:How the risk is described,“risky losses”vs.“risky gains”,can affect investor decisions.,12-6,Behavioral Biases,Mental Accounting:Investors may segregate accounts or monies and take risks with their gains that they would not take with their principal.Regret Avoidance:Investors blame themselves more when an unconventional or risky bet turns out badly.,12-7,Behavioral Biases,Prospect Theory:Conventional view:Utility depends on level of wealth.Behavioral view:Utility depends on changes in current wealth.,12-8,Figure 12.1 Prospect Theory,12-9,Limits to Arbitrage,Behavioral biases would not matter if rational arbitrageurs could fully exploit the mistakes of behavioral investors.Fundamental Risk:“Markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.”Intrinsic value and market value may take too long to converge.,12-10,Limits to Arbitrage,Implementation Costs:Transactions costs and restrictions on short selling can limit arbitrage activity.Model Risk:What if you have a bad model and the market value is actually correct?,12-11,Limits to Arbitrage and the Law of One Price,Siamese Twin CompaniesRoyal Dutch should sell for 1.5 times ShellHave deviated from parity ratio for extended periodsExample of fundamental risk,12-12,Figure 12.2 Pricing of Royal Dutch Relative to Shell(Deviation from Parity),12-13,Limits to Arbitrage and the Law of One Price,Equity Carve-outs3Com and PalmArbitrage limited by availability of shares for shortingClosed-End FundsMay sell at premium or discount to NAVCan also be explained by rational return expectations,12-14,Bubbles and Behavioral Economics,Bubbles are easier to spot after they end.Dot-com bubbleHousing bubble,12-15,Bubbles and Behavioral Economics,Rational explanation for stock market bubble using the dividend discount model:,S&P 500 is worth$12,883 million if dividend growth rate is 8%(close to actual value in 2000).S&P 500 is worth$8,589 million if dividend growth rate is 7.4%(close to actual value in 2002).,12-16,Technical Analysis and Behavioral Finance,Technical analysis attempts to exploit recurring and predictable patterns in stock prices.Prices adjust gradually to a new equilibrium.Market values and intrinsic values converge slowly.,12-17,Technical Analysis and Behavioral Finance,Disposition effect:The tendency of investors to hold on to losing investments.Demand for shares depends on price historyCan lead to momentum in stock prices,12-18,Trends and Corrections:The Search for Momentum,Dow TheoryPrimary trend:Long-term movement of prices,lasting from several months to several years.Secondary or intermediate trend:short-term deviations of prices from the underlying trend line and are eliminated by corrections.Tertiary or minor trends:Daily fluctuations of little importance.,12-19,Figure 12.3 Dow Theory Trends,12-20,Trends and Corrections:Moving Averages,The moving average is the average level of prices over a given interval of time.,Bullish signal:Market price breaks through the moving average line from below.Time to buyBearish signal:When prices fall below the moving average,it is time to sell.,12-21,Figure 12.5 Moving Average for HPQ,12-22,Trends and Corrections:Breadth,Breadth:Often measured as the spread between the number of stocks that advance and decline in price.,12-23,Sentiment Indicators:Trin Statistic,Trin Statistic:Ratios above 1.0 are bearish,12-24,Sentiment Indicators:Confidence Index,Confidence index:The ratio of the average yield on 10 top-rated corporate bonds divided by the average yield on 10 intermediate-grade corporate bonds.,Higher values are bullish.,12-25,Sentiment Indicators:Put/Call Ratio,Calls are the right to buy.A way to bet on rising pricesPuts are the right to sell.A way to bet on falling prices,A rising ratio may signal investor pessimism and a coming market decline.Contrarian investors see a rising ratio as a buying opportunity!,12-26,Warning!,It is possible to perceive patterns that really dont exist.Figure 12.8A is based on the real data.The graph in panel B was generated using“returns”created by a random-number generator.Figure 12.9 shows obvious randomness in the weekly price changes behind the two panels in Figure 12.8,12-27,Figure 12.8 Actual and Simulated Levels for Stock Market Prices of 52 Weeks,12-28,Figure 12.9 Actual and Simulated Changes in Stock Prices for 52 Weeks,
