Niklas :
Efficient market hypothesis is just meant to be a model and actually describes many patterns in financial markets pretty accurately (even though pretty useless for investing). BTW, physicists use models with simplified assumptions and boundary conditions as well.

what he was probably going to say next is that the markets weren't completely efficient as they told in finance schools, as physicists figured out

Physics is the most fundamental science; chemistry can be viewed as applied physics, and biology as applied chemistry🤣😂

Noor Research Collective :
I can see this. I wrote a coherence based economic theory and derived current economic theory from it… wanted to see if I could. Not sure what to do with that… but ya.. fun. 😏

People need to know that physics and maths majors LOVE being published. Any STEM field, really.

People are not machines and even machines need to be programmed by man. So until both of these are no longer true, you could never have a perfect market.
