“There can be few fields of human endeavour in which history counts for so little as in the world of finance.

In market cycles, most excesses on the upside and the inevitable reactions to the downside are the result of exaggerated swings by the pendulum of psychology. Even Benjamin Graham, the father of value investing and Warren Buffett’s mentor, acknowledged the tremendous influence of psychology in his allegory about Mr. Market. Depending on his volatile mood swings, Mr. Market will buy assets at unrealistically high levels or sell them at bargain basement prices.
