Informational herding with model misspecification
This paper demonstrates that a misspecified model of information processing interferes with long-run learning and allows inefficient choices to persist in the face of contradictory public information. I consider an observational learning environment where agents observe a private signal about a hidden state, and some agents observe the actions of their predecessors. Prior actions aggregate mult...
متن کاملSession: 1F
Advances in molecular biology and cellular biochemistry are providing new opportunities for diagnostic medical imaging to “see” beyond the anatomical manifestations of disease to the earliest biochemical signatures of disease. Molecular imaging generally refers to specific contrast enhancement of biomarkers reflective of underlying pathological processes. This concept is analogous to microscopi...
متن کاملA Herding Model with Preferential Attachment and Fragmentation
We introduce and solve a model that mimics the herding effect in financial markets when groups of agents share information. The number of agents in the model is growing and at each time step either (i) with probability p an incoming agent joins an existing group, or (ii) with probability 1− p a group is fragmented into individual agents. The group size distribution is found to be power-law with...
متن کاملMarket Stress and Herding
Market Stress and Herding* We propose a new approach to detecting and measuring herding which is based on the cross-sectional dispersion of the factor sensitivity of assets within a given market. This method enables us to evaluate if there is herding towards particular sectors or styles in the market including the market index itself and critically we can also separate such herding from common ...
متن کاملRational and Naive Herding
In social-learning environments, we investigate implications of the assumption that people naively believe that each previous person’s action reflects solely that person’s private information, leading them to systematically imitate all predecessors even in the many circumstances where rational agents do not. Naive herders inadvertently over-weight early movers’ private signals by neglecting tha...
