Primes

• Information Cascade
  • Instead of asking "Why are people so easily influenced?" (a question inviting blame), cascade logic asks "What information is hidden, and who observes it first?"

    This sourceReview article: reframes capital-market herding as information-asymmetry phenomenon rather than individual irrationality, surveying mechanisms (cascades, reputational herding, payoff externalities) and policy implications.

Verification

Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
