One form of the Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH).

The EMH is the general hypothesis that markets operate efficiently. In other words that assets are fairly priced by the market mechanism to incorporate available information.

The strong form states that analysis of public knowledge and even insider information cannot generate consistent excess returns.
