Behavioral Finance:

What Good Is It, Anyway?
http://invest-mutual.blogspot.sg/2015/10...is-it.html

Like it or don't, we have to know it.
WB:-

1) Rule # 1, do not lose money.
2) Rule # 2, refer to # 1.
3) Not until you can manage your emotions, you can manage your money.

Truism of Investments.
A) Buying a security is buying RISK not Return
B) You can control RISK (to a certain level, hopefully only.) But definitely not the outcome of the Return.

Welcome back Temperament! Smile how have u been?

Interesting oxymoron tweets there. Personally i think behavioural finance is the right model. I mean we look around and we still dogmatically believe the market is perfect clockwork? People love to heuristically collapse complex systems to simple solutions described by statistics, even if irrelevant

Before you speak, listen. Before you write, think. Before you spend, earn. Before you invest, investigate. Before you criticize, wait. Before you pray, forgive. Before you quit, try. Before you retire, save. Before you die, give. –William A. Ward

I thought I might come up with an 'oxymoron' list for value investing. Some of us don't fall for it, but most of us do (fall for this BS). VBs, feel free to build up the list:

(1) underpriced growth stocks
(2) buying defensive stocks for capital preservation in a crisis
(3) high dividend yield plays for income
(4) high dividend growth stocks
(5) independent director
(6) Dual role as exchange operator and regulator

Our problem is that we believe the market is perfect clockwork, but our actions don't. Most of us get less into trouble, if we act as though the market is perfect clockwork yet believe it isn't (ie. respecting market efficiency with discipline and skepticism, but yet ready to exploit its inefficiencies when time presents itself)
