博傻理論粵音:bok3 so4 lei5 leon6;英文greater fool theory)係有關「經濟泡沫點解會形成」嘅一套諗法。博傻理論講嘅係,有好多投資者都係跟以下呢條簡單法則行事嘅[1][2]:「買一件資產係個價唔合理咁高嘅(做傻仔),再搵另外一個投機買家(搵個更大嘅傻仔)以更高嘅價賣咗件資產佢。」根據博傻理論,呢種行為正正就係經濟泡沫嘅成因。

睇埋:經濟泡沫

如果跟博傻理論條法則行動嘅投資者數量有返咁上下多,件資產嘅價就會開始升,而且情況仲會因為羊群效應而加劇-喺一場噉嘅博傻泡沫當中,梗會有啲早期嘅參與者搵到大錢,而佢哋嘅故事傳咗出去,就會進一步吸引更多嘅人加入「做傻仔」。當件資產個價升到去某點,啲「最大嘅傻仔」搵唔到「更大嘅傻仔」去買件資產,件資產嘅價就會急跌-泡爆[3]

粵語翻譯:對件資產嘅需求,以及佢個價,會被推高並唔係因為投資者相信件資產嘅真實價值升咗,而係源於啲人相信無論佢哋使咗幾多錢買件資產,件資產遲吓都可以用更高嘅價賣畀第個人。

有人指出,呢個理論就噉聽落好似好合理,但到咗 2020 年代初,學界都仲未搵到充足嘅實證證據撐佢。
