The History of Bubbles

Financial bubbles are episodes where the value of something (like stocks, tulips or cryptocurrency) shoots up very rapidly, but then peaks and comes crashing down. The problem has never been seeing them in hindsight, but rather identifying one while in the middle of it. In this episode of All Else Equal: Making Better Decisions, hosts and finance professors Jonathan Berk and Jules van Binsbergen discuss with Will Goetzmann (Edwin J. Beinecke Professor of Finance and Management Studies at the Yale School of Management how to identify bubbles and which key historical bubbles have shaped our thinking about them.
