Cohort Experience Seems To Do It
Experience with same faces and same environment causes convergence to FV
Cash exacerbates the bubble characteristics Dividend certainty speeds-up the process
Experimental Design
Dividends {0,8,28,60}
Initial Portfolios Average Portfolio is
4 shares and 720 cents in cash
Twice Experienced Same cohort
Dividends {0,1,8,28,98}
Initial Portfolios Average Portfolio is
2 shares and 1530 cents in cash
Twice Experienced Mixed traders
Lead-up (Inexp, 1-Exper)
Replication with baseline Same cohort (5 cohorts – 70 subjects)
through 2 experiments with baseline parameters
Third time back Mixed the cohorts Changed the environment parameters

Conclusion
Bubbles are pervasive and persistence Attempts to moderate bubbles through institutional
changes do not work or exacerbate the price bubbles Bubbles depend on the underlying environment
Common static environment is a necessary condition for convergence to FV
Great stock market booms as driven by waves of new technology
such environments introduce new sources of unpredictable yield uncertainty
parallel with this development we see much new liquidity attracted into equity investment
