Abstract

Market efficiency, discovered by Eugene Fama, is the theory that at any given time, the prices of the market fully reflect all available information on a particular stock or and/or the market. Therefore no individual investor has any advantage over any other as all information is shared by everyone. This is known as the efficient market hypothesis, and is very controversial. I assert that markets are efficient in a semi strong form, and argue against people that believe otherwise.
