Efficient Market

**Efficient Market**

An Efficient Market refers to a financial market in which asset prices fully reflect all available information at any given time. In such a market, it is impossible to consistently achieve higher returns than the overall market average through stock picking or market timing, since price movements follow a random pattern based on new information. The concept is central to the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH), which has important implications for investors, portfolio management, and financial economics.
