institution in the world almost all
they share a basic reasoning
when it comes to money
we are enormously rational beings is one
of the great advocates of this idea
is to follow and to want the theory more
supported that exists and that I believe that
is the most respected of the sciences
social is that of the economy as a
rational behavior theory from
an individual level and that's the theory
more reliable what is the
economy john copper teacher of the
University of Chicago is another great
follower of this rational model of the
economy as we do it in the first
instead we focus on people and on
how they behave in their behavior
or here they want how he gets it
this model came to light 200 years ago
years of the father of the economy
Adam Smith in his book the wealth of
nations is of initial form of
address the economy remember how
newton and galileo approached physics
I treat some of the basic ideas and
that for example that people who
they watch over their own interests fit
perfectly in the markets can
generate fantastic results
So what did Adam Smith mean?
with a rational behavior and that
watch over your own interests
think of an average citizen today in
day is continuously calculating from
what form can your wealth increase
Adam Smith said that rational people
and then there is what is a very
limited rationality
before making any purchase that
The average citizen calculates exactly
value of things whether it's about
take a taxi or buy more shares
his goal is not to have to pay even a
cent more than necessary and although
has feelings
they never deviate from their own
financial interests for adam smith
the individuals that behave in a
rational constitute an invisible hand
that keeps the economy stable
world but Adam smith did not eat everything
getting some conclusions that results
very modern and over the years
the economists have been modifying but
he contributed the original vision have
elapsed two centuries and the economy
it has become a discipline
rigorous once the
organized behavior markets
in which people interact
we will understand the predictions that
formulates that model for the facts

of taxes or even the loan that

critics of javier istes consider
that these models are leading to
extreme the approaches of adam smith
brad pitt has forged the idea of
that people do the calculations
endless with some databases
immense the main model of
consumer behavior gives
for sure we never buy anything without
calculate the consequences that you can
have for example in our fund of
pensions and we are good at
math we use types of
interest to compute what will be
our degree of enjoyment after a
purchase and that comes to that means that
I have interest rates in my head
that's what I mean with the models
they need a coherent response from
all individuals
National economists recognize that
deep down people do not realize these
calculations but it has a way of
protect yourself well-known the theory of

about economics do not say that people
behaves like that they say that people
it behaves as if they were doing it

the bubbles sound like something innocuous but
the financial journalist and sting fox has
studied its history and has discovered
what happens when the first
financial bubble affected something
totally unexpected in the decade
1630 and the Netherlands
people bought and sold bulbs
tulips a true madness was lived
hundreds of craftsmen closed their
workshops and there would be business
florists how he called himself
in the background they were merchants of bulbs
of tulips that constituted a
true financial market
the price of the principals of the
the Netherlands increased to such an extent
that a bulb that bread came to
have a value equivalent to that of all
a house for three years the price of
the tulip bulbs increased from
exponential way until doing it from
exorbitant way some writings
they collect that almost half of all
income of the Dutch economy
came from trade related to
the tulips for many historians
that was the first real example of a
financial bubble even if it were about
Tulipanas people bought them but not
because they like tulips but
because they believed that the price was
going up and they could resell them to a
top price on February 5 thousand
637 nobody wanted to buy the octopus anymore
expensive from the netherlands and between
investors in tulips spread the
panic broke out at that moment because
the prices started to fall followed
falling and then one thinks already I knew
I that tulips could not be worth
so much better that I leave here
sooner and then the whole world what
leaves and the great calla is produced
prices plummeted and the
most relevant citizens are
they found in bankruptcy
it took a whole
generation so that the economy
Dutch will recover
since then many have been generated
bubbles and there have been many
crashes the most famous took place not
does so much
the year 1929 began with optimism the
prices of the stock market takes
many years of continuous increases and in the
year 29 the rebound was noticeable the
1920s decade was a great decade
from the economic point of view the
economy was buoyant
the industry also and towards the last
stretch the financial markets let's say
that they went from reflecting is the only one
practically create it
the boom spread everywhere to
the end of the decade there was a
feeling of a new era
the most observers talked about
Febrile emotions when thousands of
investors paid exorbitant prices
by the actions of the so-called crazy
24 years old
the stock market witnessed the
development of a huge bubble
many people thought that there would be no end
but then on October 29 the
prices plummeted suddenly and
began to breathe an atmosphere of
tension and from me to more than 9,000 banks
Americans went bankrupt
disappear the savings of millions of
people
that led to a depression that lasted
more than ten months in the decade of
thirties and reached a rate of
unemployment of 25 per slow the people are
showed very optimistic in the decade
20 and very negative in the 30's
it was an event triggered by a
change in the mentality of the people
the vision that emotions have
the ability to encourage or discourage
economy became wisdom
conventional of the decade of the 30
through the work of the famous
British economist John Maynard
keynes there is a new danger that
significantly increase the cost of living
the best-known appointment of fein is that the
market could remain
irrational longer than what one
can stay solvent james affirmed
that emotions could cause
the prices increases I know neither

economy of these dangerous bubbles
governments should regulate
strictly the markets
however he could never explain with
accuracy in what it consisted

for that reason james received the rejection

we hope to distribute them we will distribute them
salazar and then give them a
identical thermo in exchange for nothing
an hour later they are asked
how much they would be willing to sell it

rationalist the price should be
exactly the same
after all the value has not changed
however the average price they ask
for the thermos now is 9 dollars if
I would like to sell the thermos now that it is

lerner explores all kinds of emotions
Today is the turn of sadness and
impact that it has on the
financial decisions
we will start by placing these two sensors
they measure the sweat response for this
experiment is designed to induce
emotions at such a low level that
the subjects are not aware that
you feel comfortable
researchers use sensors to
follow the physiological effects of
Emotions
We are ready to pick up the first
saliva sample from the data of the
heart and breathing until the
hormones contained in saliva are
It deals with the physiological vice of
study subjects when we asked
that they feel that they relax listening
music for example and in that way
we can observe how they are in a
neutral situation
then we use that data
to compare what happens is found
in the middle of a financial situation
complicated
MUSIC
among other activities our subjects
of study they see a scene of a
sad movie
they do not know it but this triggers
a basic level of sadness in them
the sensors reveal the change
emotional are making decisions but
they are totally oblivious to how it is
influencing the sadness on them
when we asked them their answer
have been affected in some way by
the images you have seen respond
that it is not time to perform the test
financially the subjects are asked to
perform a series of actions

next they are asked how much
they would pay for a consumer product
in this case a bottle of water
Jennifer Lerner compares the lessons of
these individuals with those of a group of
people who have not seen the video with
sad images
here we have the example of a subject of
study in neutral state
this guy is telling us that he
like to buy the bottle two
dollars and 50 cents
that contrasts with these data that are
a subject in a sad state
according to which is willing to
pay 10 dollars to get the
water bottle
this is very representative of what
we see in the value increases when we are
sad if sadness can push
the people to pay four times more for
a bottle of water that happens when the
bet is greater have been made
experiments that large amounts of
common money dollars for example and
we have discovered that the results
be growing even talking
of important figures
if emotions influence prices
from an individual level
What about the markets and the
large-scale economies
according to the rationalist economy to
these are driven by self-interest
Individual
However, Robert Shiller thinks that
is missing something obvious the
human beings are empathic animals
exceptionally empathetic not only
we are communicating ideas but
we are communicating emotions
that's what empathy means
it is not the same as compassion
it means to feel the same thing I know what
you are experiencing yourself because the
feeling that you have also
It's in my body
there is a hot real estate market in
the country if robert shiller is right
could empathy explain how the
hyper optimism of the market
real estate was transmitted to the
financial markets in the manner of a
cold solution
the real estate market has grown and has
reached an unusual price between
professional financial agents
the idea that moods
influences the park, it is assumed that
the market is a compendium of how
imagine the future thousands of people
if those people are optimistic about the
future the market rises and if people are
pessimistic about the future to the market
low
at the end the question what does the
market is people are optimistic or
pessimistic
and that's a psychological question the
feelings are still moving the
markets it is commented that the bubble does not
it will burst that it can increase in size
to the rationalists the emotions do not
constitute an explanation about the
functioning of markets and
confirmation that people feel and
Suffering does not mean anything you want
ensure that markets have gone up
because people have been carried away in
mass for emotions but that's not
means nothing
that tells us the situations that
will cause markets to rise or fall
one serves as a scientific theory

used to understand the markets

it is called the hypothesis of
efficient markets and indicates that
financial markets act
fundamentally like a gigantic
calculator processing efficiently
all the relevant information to more
speed than any individual

emotions the efficient markets and the
irrational behavior are not

rational to keep prices at

efficient markets themselves
are rationalist and the
