contents This study presents empirical evidence to support the validity of new definitions in financial markets. The author develops a new method to determine investors' risk attitudes in financial markets. The risk attitudes of investors in US financial markets from 1889-1978 are analyzed and the results indicate that equity investors who invested in the composite S&P 500 index were risk-averse in 1977. Conversely, risk-free asset investors who invested in US Treasury bills were found to exhibit not enough risk-loving behavior, which can be considered a type of risk-averse behavior. These findings suggest that the new definitions in financial markets accurately reflect the behavior of investors and should be considered in investment strategies.
