Скачать или смотреть The Physics of Market Crashes: Why Black Monday Looked Like a Phase Transition

Explore the fascinating intersection of physics and finance in “The Physics of Market Crashes: Why Black Monday Looked Like a Phase Transition.” This video breaks down how market crashes resemble sudden phase transitions in physical systems — from boiling water to magnetic flips — using concepts like statistical mechanics and self-organized criticality. Dive into the 1987 Black Monday crash, discovering how automated trading and feedback loops created a tightly coupled system primed for collapse. We also connect these ideas to today's volatile markets shaped by high-frequency trading and social media-driven manias. Perfect for viewers curious about complex systems, market behavior, and the science behind financial chaos. Watch, share, and join the conversation: are crashes behavioral quirks or physics in action? #MarketCrash #BlackMonday #PhysicsExplained #FinancialMarkets #ComplexSystems #StatisticalMechanics
