Yeah. Just as I think honest economists are aware of & careful about these myths (supporting them only with caveats), I think some of the more introspective people working in finance also โ€œget itโ€ & see the risks. I wouldnโ€™t expect that would make them perform better than chance but I would expect them to avoid pitfalls that would normally cause other traders to perform worse than chance โ€” so if theyโ€™re actually doing better than chance (rather than, say, tracking the market) thatโ€™s interesting.
