  • Blackboard looks the same everwhere! I hope you are enjoying studying finance.

  • financial mathematics is bullshit, complete bullshit. Why don't you spend your time on something useful?

  • Yeah, each to there own. I am sure watching 700+ youtube videos inm such a short space of time is a very useful!

  • so how do you use the logic to finish the matrix quicker?

  • The logic I was referring to was using the $ function so you could copy and paste but lock on a particular selection of cells. A quicker way is to generate a series of returns minus means and then use mmult(transpose(range of cells),range of cells)/N to generate the entire covariance matrix quickly.

  • We at RGU use SPSS software. It might be of use to financial analysts.

  • I don't know anyone that uses SPSS for this. Excel is used almost unanimously for this type of work. For more advanced work we may use Matlab or C.

  • Finance has all the volatility and dynamism with sound theories. The basic concepts remain the same and your rational judgement in decision making makes you successful at your job.

    Every financial turnmoil/crises learns a lesson that better corporate governance policies be followed and people need to be educated about rationality in investment.
