The Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH)

The EMH has been the source of much debate and controversy since it was first popularized by Eugene Fama in 1970. Write a brief summary of the core tenants of the EMH (including scholarly support). Then, provide scholarly evidence that supports and/or refutes the legitimacy of the EMH as it relates to stock pricing.

The Business Source Complete database (available through the JFL Online Library) is an excellent place to search for finance-specific, peer-reviewed journal articles to provide the required scholarly support.
