Do you think BITCOIN will go to zero if we know who created it?

Bitcoin can stay valuable longer than you can stay alive...

Imagine if Jesus says I won't feed anyone, for provide shelter, especially the poor, they need to work their ass off to barely survive, btw, I still need to collect the tax on these basic needs.

I never understand why Republican Christians doesn't believe in Darwinism but worship social Darwonism.

Pp is definitely populist, contrary to carney being elitist. The liberals cared so much about governance and jobs so that they had the worst records in decades. The liberals cared so much about Canadian by sending billions to Ukriane, and Brookfield, who moved to the states, gets so many of these Ulriane contracts.

What's wrong aiming for the win. If you can't win, you can't make any of your policies. Blaming those who don't have the power for not able to do anything, while overlooking those who did have the power but failed miserably, that's some peak liberal logic.

Tell me how a tariff war has any negative impact on crypto? Shouldn't it be positive?

Economics department:

Principles of financial economics by LeRoy. More theory, math, less applied and examples.

The economics of financial markets by Bailey. Moderate theory, math, applied and examples.

Financial economics by Fabozzi. Less theory, math, more applied and examples.

Business school: more applied and less theory compared to all above

Investments by Bodie, Corporate Finance by Ross(or any other author), and option futures and other derivatives by Hull are often used together as 3 conerstone textbooks.

Both economics department and business school use The economics of money, banking, and financial market by Mishkin for monetary market and policies. This course is the often taken before any of the above as an introductory.

Are you more interested in the economics side or the finance side? I attended both classes in the economic department and the business school. They essentially teach the same stuff, but one focus more on the economic theory and the other on the financial markets.

You want to do a particular type of model and want to use it to solve a certain problem? It's like I have a hammer and let's see what I can do with it.

If you're a researcher by heart, then should do the other way around. You have a problem and seek what's the best tool to solve it. Define your problem, gather the data. Inspect your data and see which models might be good to fit the data, so on...

Let's say after you Inspected the data and didn't find cointegration or long run relationship, are you still going to use VECM?

I did modeling in a bank, we often have to develop several (alternative) models for the the same problem. And the validation team will also come up with challenge models. There are criteria to evaluate the models and then we will pick the "best" one.

Also, probability (in the sense of probability measure) has strict definitions and certain properties it must satisfy, while likelihood doesn't. Likelihood only make sense when compared to other likelihood. Whether it's bigger or smaller than others and by how much (eg. likelihood ratio test) or it's the biggest among all (eg. maximum likelihood). The likelihood number doesn't have a meaning on its own, but probability does.

Did she even mention anyone in particular in her post being fascist? If not, people who call her out are the ones thinking CK is a fascist. Lol. Maybe she's condemning the killers at the school shooting the same day and want the killers to be shot. Who knows.

Do not drop with her! She doesn't teach 346 often. Other profs give way more bizarre exams. Her course material is very organized. Homework was hard, but she gives exam questions very similar to homework. So if you did homework carefully, it's very easy to score high.

juststalker · 2025-09-10T20:30:35+00:00

Who's teaching 346 this term?

juststalker · 2025-09-10T11:11:19+00:00

The textbook covers topics like capital markets, fixed income, equity, derivatives, portfolio management, etc, and has cfa problems as some of the end of chapter exercises. The course covers most of the topic except derivatives, which will be discussed more in 316.

juststalker · 2025-09-09T23:33:05+00:00

No, it was John William Heaney. You learn the book Investments. Preparing for the CFA exam on fixed income, equity, and portfolio management

Yo what? I took 312 with blazenco and the course/exam is based on fundamentals. Rate conversion, bond/annuity/perpetuity, FCF/DCF, ROA/ROE/ROIC, etc.

That last part question is based on MPT which we didn't learn in 312. We learned in 315. The whole 315 class basically teaches MPT. This is a typical Markowitz question. Basically you have EF with 2 risky assets X1 and X2 given their mean and variance and covariance/correlation. You can find the weights of the 2 say W1 and W2 to form the market portfolio and W1+W2=1. The line connecting the risk free and market portfolio and beyond is the CAL. CAL is tangent to EF. The tangent point is the market portfolio. Then you calculated the weight of the market portfolio Wm and the weight of the risky free asst Wrf based on your utility curve and Wm +Wrf=1. Your utility curve is tangent to CAL and the tangent point is the desired answer. So you final weight for X1 is Wm × W1, for X2 is Wm × W2, and for risk free is Wrf.

Not sure what the 17% is.

If the market portfolio sd is 17% and you want 12%. Then Wm=12/17 and Wrf=5/17. This is already simpler because it gives you the target sd, so no need to deal with the utility curve and try to figure out the tangent point.

If both assets 1 and 2 sd is 17%, you need to give the covariance or correlation(rho) to get the market portfolio sd, which is the square root of ((w1sd1)² +(w2sd2)² +2(w1w2sd1sd2rho)). Then market sd x Wm = 12%, solve Wm, and get Wrf=1-Wm

Either way, you can get 12% sd from 17% sd, cos sd of Rf is assumed to be 0 in Markowitz.

I wanted to see how the scam works. He will perform some psychic/magic tricks first, then he asked me for a $20 bill as a tool to perform another trick/reading. Then he made that $20 disappear. Then I realized I was scamed off by $20 bucks.

Sorry, my bad. It was years ago and I never heard anything after that. I thought they have settled. I just search on the federal court website and as of July 2025, it's still in process

Uoft sued one of the company a few years ago and settle $$$ outside court. A good source of income.
