The stock market is a complex and dynamic financial ecosystem where investors make decisions based on a combination of rational analysis and behavioural factors. This article explores the profound impact of behavioural aspects on stock market investing, focusing on key psychological biases that shape investment decisions. We delve into the implications of these biases on market performance, as well as strategies to mitigate their negative effects. By understanding the interplay between human psychology and financial markets, investors can make more informed decisions and navigate the stock market with greater success.
