The biggest investor mistakes Part 1: The extrapolation error

May 16, 2018

by Prof. Manfred Frühwirth

Together with the Austrian business magazine GEWINN, Prof. Manfred Frühwirth, longstanding faculty member and Academic Director at the WU Executive Academy, will collect the most important insights from behavioral finance. The aim of the series is to make people aware of common mistakes in financial decisions and their consequences. Every month, the financial expert describes a typical behavioral error based on concrete examples. Investors should be motivated to think about their own investment behavior and perhaps to avoid one or the other trap as a consequence.
