Economics and finance have become topics dominated by maths and theory, with a key theory of economics being 'rational expectations' with theories predicated on rational operators. But the problem with this is it misses the point that people are emotional, and people are the ones who determine how the economy operates and how prices behave in financial markets. Indeed the emerging field of behavioral finance is honing in on this very point and attracting increasing attention. If any example illustrated the folly of human behavior in financial and economic systems, it was the global financial crisis. Simply put, in order to really understand economics and finance you must understand the impact of human psychology, emotions, and behaviour.
