Abstract

Zero-sum games are a fundamental concept in game theory, where one participant's gain is exactly balanced by another participant's loss. In financial markets, zero-sum dynamics are evident in investment strategies such as foreign exchange trading, derivatives markets, and speculative investments. This journal explores the application of zero-sum game theory in financial markets, comparing global trends with those in Africa, East Africa, and Kenya. Using case studies and empirical evidence, the study examines how investors leverage zero-sum strategies and their implications for market efficiency and economic stability.
