Q5.
Mandy and Jerry White both 50-year-old, are meeting with their financial advisor Peter Lu. The couple own shares of Global Media Co., a social media company. Global Media has experienced higher than industry average earning growth since IPO for more than twenty years. However, in the most recent quarter, Global Media’s earnings have been below analysts’ expectation. Mandy believed that the short-term earning decline reflects the real trends of the company and suggested to sell the shares of Global Media.

A. Confirmation
B. Representativeness.
C. Conservatism.

解析:Mandy 基于最近一个季度的短期数据就认为反映了公司的真实趋势,并据此做出卖出决策。这是代表性偏差(representativeness bias),即过度依赖小样本或近期数据来推断整体趋势,忽略了20多年的长期良好记录(基础比率)。
选项 判断 解析 A ✗ 确认偏差是只关注支持自己观点的信息 B ✓ 基于短期数据过度推断趋势是代表性偏差 C ✗ 保守偏差是对新信息反应不足,维持原有观点

选项 判断 解析 A ✓ 控制幻觉导致过度自信和过度交易 B ✗ 锚定偏差是过度依赖初始信息,不一定导致过度交易 C ✗ 保守偏差是对新信息反应迟缓,通常导致交易不足

选项 判断 解析 A ✗ 后悔厌恶与动量效应相关(害怕错过) B ✗ 可得性偏差与动量效应相关(近期表现易被回忆) C ✓ 维持现状偏差与动量效应无直接关系
