The THEORY OF WILD BEASTS is a framework for understanding price behaviour in financial markets. It is a total re-think of theory as we know it--something that can actually help in molding our perspective, so that we can intelligently approach the complexity of financial markets. One of the most complicated issues that any financial theory needs to come to grips with is the complexity of financial markets--i.e. how it deals with the human investors, their actions, and their interactions. This is something which has long been avoided in standard theory for the simple reason that the dynamics of multiple, heterogeneous, intelligent, subjective, adaptive and autonomous agents, all doing whatever it takes to be successful in financial markets, can be quite overwhelming, if not being beyond the deductive capacity of our human mind. Rather than simplifying reality or adopting unrealistic assumptions, the THEORY OF WILD BEASTS faces up to the situation by embracing a very pragmatic stance on these issues. And this is, that we should simply understand what we can, but at the same time, we need to recognise what is unattainable. Sure, markets are complex. But rather than fight it, why not come up with a way of dealing with all that complexity as best as we can? Starting with a simple acknowledgement that financial economics is actually very different in nature from some of the other sciences such as physics and chemistry. So different, that it would not be surprising if we approached the theory construction problem in a non-conventional way.
