Mark thinks that there is an interesting paradox of the efficient market hypothesis. If the market believes that prices reflect all information, investors will stop seeking mispriced securities. This may lead to more mispriced stocks and more inefficiency. However, if the market believes that inefficiency still exists, the competition of trying to be the first to find mispriced securities will make markets more efficient. Do you agree with Mark? Why or why not? Please briefly comment.
