It is certainly not efficient. Markets are something like 95% random, but the other 5% is HUGE. However, understanding the tools of Random Theories is a good idea for those that need to get at the 5%. nitro
The markets are definately not random. There are numerous statistical tests you can apply yourself to demonstrate that completely randomness is not the case. If it was completely random then this would just be vegas without the hookers.
The difference between researchers and traders is the researchers are still working for a regular wage while traders are paid/unpaid by the stock markets. And the truth is the Market is composed and driven by traders, not researchers. In my opinion, A Random Walk Down Wall Street is true at some degree but not fully as the author had claimed.
You can go as far as you want in the random or not random theory and things about efficiency but the question is can you take money from it on a regular basis ? yes you can. Perhaps that will answer your question.
