Explanations lie in investor behavior and distorted perceptions, so-called home bias and overconfidence effect. This article describes these phenomena from the perspective of behavioral economics using heuristics Keywords - German Stock Market, Investment Portfolios, Home- Bias, Overconfidence Effect, Behavioral Economics | |||||||||
