Abstract

A parsimonious percolation model for stock market is proposed, of which the avalanche dynamics agree with the real-life one as well. We have also investigated how the interaction parameterpaffects the price dynamics. Simulation results about the formation of the bullish/bearish market and corresponding avalanche taking place in the market indicate that the magnified "herd behavior" resulting from the evolution ofpmay be the origin of the observed avalanche phenomena.
