Statistical Mechanics 2009-10-31 v1 Statistical Finance

Abstract

Sharp changes in time series representing market dynamics are studied by means of the self--similar analysis suggested earlier by the authors. These sharp changes are market booms and crashes. Such crises phenomena in markets are analogous to critical phenomena in physics. A simple classification of the market crisis phenomena is given.
