As it turns out, humans are hard-wired to react emotionally to stress.
 
In his presentation at the London School of Economics, Bob Prechter discusses neurobiology and the biological impulses that make "rational self-interest" so difficult:
 

 

So how does one "escape the herd?"
 
In his presentation, Prechter condenses three decades of research to show how socionomic theory and Elliott Wave patterns work -- all in a two-hour presentation that anyone can follow and understand.
 
His engaging talk illustrates how waves of optimism and pessimism in collective psychology appear not only in the economy, but also in pop culture, politics, sports, and the news.
 
As market volatility continues, NOW is a vital time to discover how our herding impulse, regulated by Elliott Waves, drives trends in the economy, investor psychology, and the financial markets -- so that you can make sense of the swirl of financial and social events going on around you.
 
Prechter’s presentation offers a unique clarity to the way you see financial markets. History will become relevant to you in a way it never has before. Once you understand socionomics, you may never read the news the same way again.
