Why wouldn’t client 1 buy additional shares?
regret aversion = fear of making decisions that turn out poorly or fear of not making decisions that turn out well (error of omission)
couldnt one argue the client wants wants to buy more shares as they’ve gone up?
i get the no action answer but was indifferent between that and the buy option
easiest way to think about it is regret aversion = inability to make a decision (either way)
