Answer to Question 1: Efficient Market Hypothesis was firstly brought forward by E. Fama in 1960s. Its main believing is in that security prices fully reflect all available information in an efficient market‚ which allows investors to earn no above average risk-adjusted return (Fama‚ 1965). Although some technical studies and opportunistic investors have stretched hard in searching for proofs to challenge the efficient market hypothesis‚ and to prove above average returns could be gained by predicting

1 Factor Models The Markowitz mean-variance framework requires having access to many parameters: If there are n risky assets‚ with rates of return ri ‚ i = 1‚ 2‚ . . . ‚ n‚ then we must know 2 all the n means (ri )‚ n variances (σi ) and n(n − 1)/2 covariances (σij ) for a total of 2n + n(n − 1)/2 parameters. If for example n = 100 we would need 4750 parameters‚ and if n = 1000 we would need 501‚ 500 parameters! At best we could try to estimate these‚ but how? In fact‚ it is easy to see

Sampling Methodologies Population: Population is defined as including all items with the characteristic one wishes to understand. Because there is seldom enough time or money to gather information from everyone or everything in a population‚ the goal is to find a representative sample (or subset) of that population. For example‚ a researcher might study the success rate of a new ’quit smoking’ program on a sample group of 50 patients‚ in order to predict the effects of the program if it were

When thinking back to the Gupta Empire in India‚ one might remember the famous works of literature‚ or perhaps the vast lands conquered by the great rulers of the time. But it would be imprudent to ignore the influential achievements made in the areas of science‚ medicine‚ mathematics‚ and astronomy that made the empire scientifically advanced. Many people fail to realize that countless things mistaken for solely modern-day science‚ for example‚ plastic surgery‚ existed centuries ago. Here‚ the technologies

The terrorist attacks in London Thursday served as a jarring reminder that in today’s world‚ you never know what you might see when you pick up the newspaper or turn on the TV. Disturbing images of terror can trigger a visceral response no matter how close or far away from home the event happened. Throughout history‚ every military conflict has involved psychological warfare in one way or another as the enemy sought to break the morale of their opponent. But thanks to advances in technology‚ the

This was one of the first and most influential texts on hacking I ever read. Copied here‚ because it seems to be no longer available from mc2.nu‚ which is where I originally found it. (anyone remember mc2? jabukie? the original hackers.com? HNC? AS-Mag? dtmf.org? nmrc? get in touch‚ I’d love to share archives) You stay up all night on the PC typing and typing. No‚ you’re not hacking. You’re begging someone on IRC to teach you how to hack! Let’s look at the facts: 1. You’re a luser and you’re

The purpose of this memo is to describe the sampling process and illustrate how sampling can be used during an audit. This memo will begin by defining what sampling is‚ when it should be used‚ and the risks associated with it. The memo will then continue to describe the basic steps involved with sampling‚ define terms within those steps‚ and describe the use of sampling in the audit by identifying two situations in which sampling is used in an audit. Sampling is the objective of which is to make

Life of Pi is intended‚ so Martel tells us‚ to make the reader believe in God. This bold‚ apparently evangelical‚ premise locates it on a dangerous moral high ground. D.H. Lawrence warned against using the novel as a forum for the author to assert his own moral or religious belief: Morality in the novel is the trembling instability of the balance. When the novelist puts his thumb in the scale‚ to pull down the balance to his own predilection‚ that is immorality. (D.H. Lawrence‚ "Morality and the
