About this book
A rising price can change a trader's convictions as quickly as a piece of news. G. C. Selden examines that process in this 1912 study of stock market psychology, tracing how hesitation, confidence and fear help shape speculative cycles. His examples include conversations between traders who keep revising their positions according to what they think everyone else holds. He distinguishes these shorter fluctuations from the broader movements tied to financial conditions.
The discussion moves between crowd behaviour and the habits of individual investors. In the middle excerpt, the same news encourages one trader to buy and another to sell, while an oversized position makes a small rumour feel urgent. Chapters address panic, booms, expectations and personal judgment. Readers interested in the history of financial thinking will find a practical account of how opinions become trading decisions, with particular attention to the difficulty of predicting other people's reactions.
