Abstract

Over the past 40 years the importance of Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) is well documented and discussed. EMH is useful for analyzing the way equity markets function and consequently for providing appropriate information for investment decision.

Market Hypothesis says that each and every investor have equal right to get earliest arrived information in financial market and to react on that. This paper provides a review about how now a day's market is inefficient either because of not getting all the fresh news related to stocks on time or they do not care about those news or they do not want to react on that piece of arrived information because of their own psychology or sentiments.
