I find it incredibly stupid.

In the meantime, It would be extremely gratifying for me coz thousands of dumb MBAs are paying good money to learn this stupid theory.

EMH, as you must know, holds that security prices always and immediately reflect all available information. The theory bases its reasoning on the unrealistic assumptions including perfect information and low transaction costs.

strong EMH is bogus, but the weaker forms work well as first order approximations of market behavior. financial autocorrelations are low, and examples of workable technical trading strategies are few and far between

the dot com boom and bust, black monday 1987, etc clearly discredit ANY form of EMH. Technical trading strategies are unworkable by definition since it is based on timing as opposed to pricing. Fundamental analysis is TCR, aka warren buffett style.

God, can't believe I am learning all those bullshit in school.

it's still difficult/impossible to predict those sorts of huge price crashes in any kind of systematic way.

which shows that market participants are far from rational and securities can be priced in a grossly inefficient way.

No, it is a retardedly stupid theory.

It basically says that stock analysis is meaningless and nobody should both with it, which is clearly not the case.

the weak form is just a nuanced permutation of this flawed theory.

The market is either efficient or inefficient. What does it mean to be weakly efficient. Damn.
