This lecture discusses evidence against the strong form of Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) through examples like the Madoff ponzi scheme and Wirecard fraud. It explores event studies testing the semi-strong EMH, methodology for abnormal return calculation, and the significance testing. The lecture also covers topics like merger announcements, real-time market efficiency, unexpected earnings, factor portfolios, mutual fund performance, and fund manager persistence.
