This lecture introduces the Efficient Markets Hypothesis (EMH), which states that asset prices reflect all available information. It covers the weak, semi-strong, and strong forms of EMH, as well as the implications of market efficiency on asset pricing and predictability. The lecture also discusses evidence supporting and challenging the EMH, including market anomalies, insider trading cases, and market manipulation scandals.
