Behavioral Finance

Description

In your readings, you read an article that discusses current trends in behavioral finance research: (a) DNA analysis and financial behaviors, (b) investor data and behavior, (c) Investor reaction, and (d) experimental market assets.

Each of these articles can be found in this special issue of The Journal of Economic Behavior and Organization (editorial in your reading).

Choose one of these areas and read the articles associated with the topic (mentioned in the appropriate sections of the editorial from your readings). Now, explore what research has been conducted since these articles were written.

What is the current state of research in these areas? What has been researched that further contributes to the particular research area you have chosen?

Provide a 600 to 800-word summary (formatted according to APA guidelines) of the new research in this area from a minimum of five new peer reviewed journal articles and identify questions that need exploring in future research.
