Just Say Whoa!

Is Smallcap Volatility Pain Worth the Gain?

Someone who can't spell "pseudo" should probably not use the word "science" in the same sentence.

Emotions are simply secretions of neuropeptides by the brain (or the immune system) that spread throughout the body.

These "emotional" neuropeptides contain something called "ligands" which act as a "key" to unlock the receptors in cells. When unlocked or activated, cells produce a cascade of chemical reactions, which can have long-lasting and persistent effects on the physical body.

In other words, emotions are real, physical bio-chemical reactions that cause changes in your body on a cellular level. Emotions are not just "all in your head". They are real and they influence how you think and feel on a moment-to-moment and day-to-day basis.

Excellent thought, Mr. Zhuang.

Yes, the emotional impact of investing is about the "risk to reward ratio".

According to Daniel Kahneman, you should probably not invest in small caps unless the potential reward is at least twice what a lower Beta volatility investment would yield.

Thank you for bringing up-to-date science into the "dismal" so-called "science" of economics.
