The short-term temptation of the financial market can easily consume the long-term financial gain, excessive financialization personal safety a warning
Financialization: What is it?
It refers to the growing power of financial incentives, markets, instruments, players, and institutions in national and international economies.
It also calls for shifting investment toward “financial assets” (like mutual funds) rather than traditional, “physical” assets (like gold or real estate).
But, as the global financial crisis of 2008 showed, careless financialization can lead to systemic risks, such as market volatility, increased debt and default risks, loss of trust, etc.
Reasons for the Increase in Careless Finance
Too easy access to unsecured loans and margin trading leads to speculation and excessive credit availability.
Derivative mania: Market gyrations and rabid trading stem from complex financial products.
High-frequency trading (HFT): Algorithmic trading makes movements in the market occur more quickly than rationality usually permits.
Financial illiteracy happens when ordinary investors gamble without knowing the risks.
Short-term profits are valued over long-term financial security.
Technology risks: AI-led trading is inexplicable, increasing systemic risk
Peer pressure in retail investing refers to how social media and “herd mentality” cause inexperienced investors to engage in speculative trading.
