Abstract:
Frustrated
by difficulties in explaining seemingly aberrant financial market
behavior using contemporary methods of financial economics,
a new school of behavioral finance has arisen that mixes psychology
and economics. Despite the superficial appeal of this multi-disciplinary
approach, this talk critiques behavioral finance by using the
analytic tools of option pricing theory to solve a canoncial
puzzle of behavioral finance - the closed end fund discount.
