Summary:

Survivorship bias or survival bias is the logical error of concentrating on entities that passed a selection process while overlooking those that did not. This can lead to incorrect conclusions because of incomplete data.

In this episode, we'll discuss how this can apply in the financial world as well as the rest of the world.
