Talk:Sunspots (economics)

Suggestion for an addition to Sunspots from a newbie who does not know how to edit. It would be appreciated

Hi I first looked for an area to make suggestions, but I probably missed it and do not know how to edit. I am graduating Ph.D. student in Finance came from Industry. I don't know how to edit so forgive me if this is complete input the wrong way, but I thought a good addition(even though it is a Finance related journal article) to the Sunspots article and some extra reinforcement would be Hirshleifter and Shumway's 2003 "Good Day Sunshine: Stock Returns and the Weather" Journal of Finance. I thought Diamond-Dybvig Model and Sunspots reference was well done and that is why this Hirshleifer and Shumway jumped out at me when I saw this Wikipedia piece. If any one could edit or add the suggestion would be appreciated. Thank You. Ref: Hirshleifer, David and Shumway, Tyler, "Good Day Sunshine: Stock Returns and the Weather."

Nice suggestion. Just added it. By the way, if you click on "edit", and then cut and paste some existing "reference" tag, you should be able to get the formatting right. Rinconsoleao (talk) 09:28, 4 May 2011 (UTC)

If I could ask how many people decided it was a low priority? it is actually known to be still quite interesting among colleagues. My suggestion would be next level up at least, for this has quite a bit to do with behavioral economics and Behavioral Finance. Thanks so much. Guero303030 (talk) 02:11, 4 May 2011 (UTC)

Sunspots as self-fulfilling prophecies definitely deserve a much larger place on this page. I would even argue that they are the dominant phenomenon refered to as "sunspots" in economics. See Azariadis, C. (1981). Self-fulfilling prophecies. Journal of Economic Theory 25 (3), 380-396.--Melt core (talk) 22:00, 24 February 2013 (UTC)
