Understanding Cognitive Biases in Financial Decision-Making

Cognitive biases can significantly impact financial decision-making, often leading individuals to make irrational investment choices. For instance, overconfidence may cause investors to overestimate their abilities, while loss aversion can make them more sensitive to losses than gains. Additionally, biases such as recent bias and attribution bias can affect which stocks are chosen and how retirement plans are managed. Recognizing these biases is crucial for making informed financial decisions and preventing costly mistakes.
