Essay question example:
Explain how prospect theory can bring an answer to the equity premium puzzle?
1. Form of answer: structured paragraph, you can use graphs to illustrate your answer.
2. The answer should include:
• Definition of the equity premium puzzle (EPP)
• Define and introduce prospect theory, highlighting the feature / element of prospect theory that can explain the EPP:
loss aversion
• It is very likely that a stock shows some decline over a short time horizon, which may then trigger loss aversion. People
tend to be loss averse and myopic. So, investors will focus on short term intervals to evaluate losses. Myopic loss averse
agents will then not invest/reduce investments in stocks.
