Abstract
This work sets the market maker as overconfident and shows that this will lead to a higher informed trading intensity, a more efficient market, a larger informed profit and a lower adverse selection.
⺠I present a model where the market maker owns a public signal and overestimates its precision. ⺠I examine the effects of overconfidence on the equilibrium outcomes. ⺠Overconfidence will enhance the informed trading intensity, profit and market efficiency. ⺠Overconfidence will decrease the adverse selection.
