“The actual actions of the people in the market are the things that determine what happens next within the market. The 'standard' financial markets model is, effectively, based on a coin toss. That is how derivatives are priced and how every exotic financial instrument is seen- they are very fancy coins, where flipping creates price changes.”— Professor Neil Johnson
Physics professor studying complex systems, crowd behavior, and social networks.
