Abstract: This paper intends to establish the importance of expectations and confidence of Indian investors on the financial market in India. Previous research of investors in other countries has shown that both of these attitudes manifest clear tendencies to change through time and strongly influence the behavior of the pragmatic markets. The field of behavioral finance — an emerging field in financial analysis that takes explicit account of psychological factors — is the driving force of this research. This research is based on information obtained through a survey process in India.
