From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. In behavioral finance, the ostrich effect is the attempt made by investors to avoid negative financial information. The name comes from the common (but false) legend that ostriches bury their heads in the sand to avoid danger.
Ostriches are omnivores and feed on plant vegetation such as seeds, grains, fruit, shoots, leaves and flowers. They may also feed on large insects such as locusts. Because ostâ¦riches do not have teeth, they need to swallow small stones and pebbles to help grind up the food and aid in the digestion process.
