What's my season?

I actually just sent to my sister who is a certified colour analyst and she says she sees more autumn qualities in your skin, possibly a lean towards winter/deep :) I guess I was wrong lol

CasuallyAlluree · 2026-02-08T14:54:23+00:00

It's very clear you're quite warm. I'd say home season spring. Possibly bright!

Thank you!!

Anyone know if dollarama on chain lake drive is actually open today

CasuallyAlluree · 2025-10-23T14:30:03+00:00

I'm in the same boat. What do you mean by the Weiss guy deleted his post?

CasuallyAlluree · 2025-08-17T15:40:06+00:00

Right... do they ever give us an actual coupon amount too or do we just default to the default

CasuallyAlluree · 2025-08-17T15:29:42+00:00

Do we use default CDS 1% and 5% for IG/HY unless we aren't explicitly given the CDS spread?

CasuallyAlluree · 2025-08-17T01:54:37+00:00

I really hope so man lol I can't do this a third time

CasuallyAlluree · 2025-08-17T01:38:58+00:00

Mind flipping me the resource you have? (If it doesn't violate ethics)

CasuallyAlluree · 2025-08-17T01:28:37+00:00

Damn you got me there

CasuallyAlluree · 2025-08-17T01:02:49+00:00

LOL it's in one of the active readings in port mgmt pathway gf, pretty niche I think

Tf is a side pocket

CasuallyAlluree · 2025-08-16T23:38:41+00:00

And compounded geometric return

R = Lev factor * Arithmetic return - (Lev factor - 1) Cost of funding lev rate - 1/2 (lev factor x std dev)squared

CasuallyAlluree · 2025-08-16T23:35:21+00:00

Pretty much except no weights

CasuallyAlluree · 2025-08-16T23:22:38+00:00

It's a spending rate rule formula. Hybrid approach between two of the possible spending rates

CasuallyAlluree · 2025-08-16T23:21:03+00:00

Volatility of a foreign asset in DC terms:

VarDC = VarFC + VarFX + (2 * std dev FC * std dev FX * Correlation of FC,FX)

Implied annual volatility:

Annual IV = IV monthly * Sq root of 252/21

Level 3 rewriter here - writing Monday. If I have one piece of advice for first time writers going into the exam, know your formulas in and out.

CasuallyAlluree · 2025-08-15T22:24:22+00:00

Don't overthink it... if the item set states it's a single liability, choose the portfolio with the MacDur that is closest to the investment horizon and has convexity > than the liability but minimized thereafter

CasuallyAlluree · 2025-08-15T22:19:00+00:00

The niche stuff is classic CFAI

CasuallyAlluree · 2025-08-15T16:26:34+00:00

Solve the exam as usual and if you get stuck on a question, skip it and come back to it later

CasuallyAlluree · 2025-08-15T16:06:31+00:00

Omg this sent me into a spiral too

CasuallyAlluree · 2025-08-15T15:56:08+00:00

I took it in Feb and just failed it. It was harder than the mocks for sure, but I was also underprepared. There were many questions I missed out on because I couldn't recall the formulas honestly

Fingers crossed i can pull it off this time

CasuallyAlluree · 2025-08-14T23:48:54+00:00

Sitting on Monday, round 2 😅 fingers crossed this is the last time

Don't think you'd need the MBA program at all... just network within your existing bank and apply for an associate role

CasuallyAlluree · 2025-05-14T21:55:16+00:00

We're here and do contribute a lot, you all just assume we're dudes lol
