SummaryA SoK paper introduces FARSIGHT, a framework evaluating 15 academic LLM-based financial trading agents for robustness under market turbulence and security against adversarial attacks. Findings: 80% fail core robustness metrics, 100% exhibit security vulnerabilities, and failure modes can cascade into market-wide crashes.
Why it mattersEmpirical test of 15 schemes shows LLM trading agents are broadly vulnerable to adversarial attacks and market stress, with documented systemic collapse risk for high-stakes deployments.
