Cognitive Biases Impacting Financial Decisions
Cognitive and emotional biases significantly affect financial decision-making, often leading individuals to make poor investment choices. Examples include overconfidence, where investors overestimate their abilities, and loss aversion, which highlights the greater impact of losing money compared to gaining it. These biases can hinder people from making objective decisions about their portfolios, especially during market fluctuations. Understanding and addressing these biases can help individuals navigate their financial lives more successfully, ultimately leading to better investment outcomes.
