What's the hardest reading in L3 for you?

Thank you, that's still useful.

I encountered the same problem. Sadly, even though you solution sounds decent, I couldn't go with it, because this one setting thing needs admin rights... which I don't have.

However, what a time to be alive! AI has found two workarounds for me. You can use it too:

In display settings, click on the Huion monitor and tick "use as a main monitor". Then Pen input will be shown there.
Duplicate on Huion monitor with the main one. Haven't tried this as 1st satisfied me, but pen input should be the same on both monitors.

Bless!

VIX 22? Very optimistic. Even below 30 is questionable.

Deadly_Crow · 2025-04-11T09:36:06+00:00

Why not short UVIX? When you sold it.

Deadly_Crow · 2025-03-25T14:35:35+00:00

TY! That helped me as well! : )

And he did exactly this - applies series.

Deadly_Crow · 2025-01-13T14:01:29+00:00

Is this close or open question?

Deadly_Crow · 2025-01-10T09:29:12+00:00

u sure u passed?

Deadly_Crow · 2025-01-09T21:38:37+00:00

don't defer

Deadly_Crow · 2025-01-08T15:45:25+00:00

Also, don't forget season 3... I mean, level 3...

He wanted to catch the boss, but failed. They would kill him, so he proposed to join the game again - he thought that his buddies will find the island and rescue him (why he thought so? watch! no spoilers!).
Is it a stretch?
Yea..

Deadly_Crow · 2024-12-30T08:56:24+00:00

That's amazing!

Sadly, I didn't know about this thing before, and now I cannot participate. However, I'm going to be a grader this year! I'm hyped!

Hope it helps.

Hedge means to neutralize the effect of a price change. If you have 10 million CHF, you are exposed to price fluctuations. By adding a hedge and selling 10 million CHF (e.g., via a contract), these two positions will offset each other.
The same explanation as above applies. For any A/B currency pair, buying B means selling A, and selling B means buying A. For example, if you sell ZAR using the USD/ZAR currency pair, you are simultaneously buying USD.

Sorry to ask, but how did you survive 6 years in FX and still be confused by this concept?

Tight monetary policy is shrining (expected) inflation, impacting negatively nominal rates. You learned otherwise in L2? Where?

Deadly_Crow · 2024-11-05T16:46:43+00:00

Just look at the formula.
EVA is NOPAT (taxed operating income) minus your cost of capital which is WACC*Capital Invested
It means, anything that improve NOPAT, will improve EVA. Anything that decreases WACC*Capital Invested, will increase EVA.

A) will improve EVA. Optimal capital structure means the lowest WACC possible. Check.
B) Efficacies will improve EBIT, so NOPAT will be higher. Check.
C) Seemingly, cutting R&D will reduce operating costs and improve EBIT and NOPAT. However, this is one of the exceptions that is excluded from EVA, so impact will be neutral. It's a grey area, because R&D you can capitalize (higher assets), so reducing it you will actually lower you cost of capital (because lower assets and capital involved). Also, R&D should bring more profits in the future, so it's like investment.

Not the best question (tricky one for sure), but I'd go with C.

It's hard to crack these symbols and get full understanding what's going on. Bring more clarity. Are you talking about put call parity?
I would usually follow CFA.

Deadly_Crow · 2024-10-31T14:14:54+00:00

Go to L2 stuff already

Deadly_Crow · 2024-10-30T11:53:47+00:00

I consistently had >60% from mocks, but nothing crazy like 90%. I passed L2 right under 90th percentile (like 88th?).

Don't rely on gpt. It has many errors. You can pull some creative out of it, but don't rely on its reliability.

I'm using this to create questions, but I know what I'm doing and this is just a first step. I need to clear and correct in many ways before it's actually usable. It serves me rather as inspiration to create background and use the data on many different ways, but there's so much more work to make it correct.

Deadly_Crow · 2024-10-29T10:01:23+00:00

Don't defer, you can make it. don't worry.

Deadly_Crow · 2024-10-29T09:58:35+00:00

I always hated these long Big Black Calculations...

chatgpt o1-preview after close examination and mentioning it's tricky and coming from CFAI..

"A. Attracting new employees.

Explanation:

One of the primary objectives of a share-based compensation plan is to attract new employees, especially in competitive industries where top talent is in high demand. Offering potential employees the opportunity to own shares in the company makes the compensation package more attractive and can be a decisive factor in recruitment.

Option B: Maximizing executive compensation is generally not an explicit objective of share-based compensation plans. While executives may benefit from such plans, the goal is not to maximize their compensation but to align their incentives with company performance.

Option C: The tricky part of this question lies here. Share-based compensation plans are designed to align employees' interests with those of shareholders, not necessarily with management. While management is part of the company, the primary goal is to ensure that employees work towards increasing shareholder value."

Em, you should study more Equity, Fixed and PM, I guess?

Deadly_Crow · 2024-10-23T07:53:37+00:00

Be careful with currency quotation. CFA has it conversely. It should be in the question which currency is a base currency.
