2. The Efficient Markets Hypothesis (EMH) as formalized by Eugene Fama in 1970 describes an efficient capital market as one that is efficient in processing information, so that the prices of securities observed at any time are based on an unbiased evaluation of all information available at that time. In other words, the market quickly and correctly adjusts to new information which is assumed to be unpredictable and random.  a. Eugene Fama categorizes EMH in terms of three forms of efficiency. Describe each form of efficiency and provide an example of a type of analysis or type of information that would refute each one(6 marks)  b. In empirical tests of the EMH over the years, a number of anomalies have been found that question the conclusion of market efficiency. In some cases, these anomalies were temporary, in other cases they were persistent. Even in the cases when the anomalies persisted, the problem may not have been with EMH. Explain why that might be the case and describe how the Fama-French model provides an explanation that could be considered consistent with EMH (6 marks)
