Asset pricing theory features sophisticated mathematical models that are influential in various sectors, including banking and government. However, the ability of these models to accurately predict financial market behavior is questionable. In this work, a prominent financial researcher presents a comprehensive investigation into the empirical validity of asset pricing. He highlights the overlooked role of speculation, challenging the efficient markets hypothesis that dominates financial thinking. The author argues that existing empirical evidence may be compromised by assumptions necessary for interpreting historical data or by repetitive analyses of the same data. To address these concerns, he suggests relaxing key assumptions about market efficiency and risk, allowing for new insights from existing data. Additionally, he advocates for experimental studies where participants trade designed assets for real money, offering a fresh perspective on asset pricing theory. This work is poised to engage finance scholars and readers interested in the scientific underpinnings of financial mathematics. It has also laid the groundwork for subsequent award-winning journal articles, contributing significantly to the discourse on asset pricing.
