Why prices jump around

Tell apart something you noticed, a guess about why it happened, and a proper test.

Module 2 of 26, Why prices move, and why beating the market is hard. Lesson 1 of 6, about 18 minutes.

The takeaway

Treat every market explanation as a guess that needs a clock, a cost model and something to compare against.
