MARKET EFFICIENCY. Introduction. What is an "efficient" market? Can you say that the stock market in Zimbabwe is efficient?. Definitely our stock market is very small relative to others. For example‚ the ZSE carries only 75 counters‚ whereas the Johannesberg Stock Exchange (JSE) has more than five thousand firms‚ yet by world standards‚ even the JSE is still regarded as an "emerging market". So you can see that there are very few players on our ZSE‚ thus very little competition among the investors

Bacterial Fermentation Secondary article Article Contents Volker Mu¨ller‚ Ludwig-Maximilians-Universita¨t Mu¨nchen‚ Munich‚ Germany . Introduction Under anaerobic conditions‚ in the dark and in the absence of electron acceptors‚ organic compounds are catabolized by strictly anaerobic or facultatively anaerobic bacteria by internally balanced oxidation–reduction reactions‚ a process called fermentation. In fermentation‚ the organic compound serves as both electron donor and acceptor‚ and adenosine

24‚ 2011 Energy Efficiency There are various sources of energy available for use. However‚ energy is a limited and sparse resource that is not in abundance at all places. There is an ever rising need for more energy‚ but the energy supply and resources are limited. As a result‚ people have to develop means that can enable them to survive with the small amount of energy that is available. The proper and sustainable use of energy is known as energy efficiency. Efficiency is attained through

immediate threat to human health. [1] In this article we explore contamination from this particular strain of E. coli bacteria (O157:H7) and enteric viruses‚ their potential threats and how to test the water for such contamination. Bacterial Contamination Bacterial contamination of water is usually in the form of coliform bacteria. Coliform bacteria live in soil/vegetation and in the gastrointestinal tract of animals and humans. They thrive in warm‚ wet and dark places.

The Phenomenon that is Genetic Transformation Matt Kimmel November 17‚ 2011 Bio 121-012 Introduction Genetic transformation is when the genetic makeup of an organism is altered by it receiving external genetic material (Barnhart and Hopper‚ 2011). Bacterial transformation was first seen during an experiment by Fredric Griffith in 1928. In the experiment there were two strains of bacteria‚ a virulent strain‚ and non-virulent strain. Virulent simply means disease causing‚ and therefore non-virulent

Market Efficiency Extended Essay In this extended essay I will address a number of key issues in relation to market efficiency. I will define market efficiency and describe the three different forms of market efficiency which consist of; weak-form efficiency‚ semi-strong form and strong-form efficiency. I will also outline the characteristics of market efficiency. I will then define what a mutual fund is and compare and contrast an open-ended

Miguel Felix pGLO Transformation Mr. Betz AP Biology 14 December 2012 Abstract The purpose of this experiment is to determine the effects of the addition of a plasmid to a bacterial cell. The bacteria E. Coli was separated into two groups: one where the pGLO plasmid was added to the bacteria‚ which contains the genes of fluorescence and resistance to antibiotics‚ and the other lacking the plasmid. The two groups then placed in agar plates simulating different environments: the bacteria lacking

(a) Explain how allocative efficiency is related to the concepts of consumer surplus and producer surplus. Consumer surplus is defined as the highest price consumers are willing to pay for a good minus the price actually paid. As shown in the diagram‚ P1 is the highest price consumers are willing to pay for a good. Pe is the equilibrium price determined by the market. Any consumers are willing to pay price higher than Pe will end up paying Pe. This means they pay less than they expect‚ therefore
