1) The document describes a long-short investment strategy that aims to build a market-neutral portfolio consisting of long positions in stocks with improving fundamentals and short positions in the Euro STOXX 50 Future.
2) The strategy has achieved positive returns during negative market months and preserved capital during positive months, reaching a nice balance.
3) Over time, the long-only portion of the strategy has exhibited lower beta characteristics than the market index, causing the long-short strategy to take on an unintentional negative beta posture by shorting more futures. However, this positioning helps preserve capital during downturns.

Venture capital returns remained positive across nearly all time horizons ending March 31, 2008, according to a report from Thomson Reuters and the National Venture Capital Association. The one-year return saw the largest quarterly decrease to 13.3%, while three-year and ten-year returns also declined slightly. Venture returns outperformed public markets except for the five-year horizon. However, weak exit markets may threaten long-term performance in the coming year according to NVCA President Mark Heesen.
This summary provides an overview of key events that affected global equity markets over the past two weeks:
- Global equity markets posted decent returns in January after struggling in 2014, while the US market fell, possibly indicating mean reversion.
- Central banks continued expanding their balance sheets through quantitative easing (QE) programs, with the ECB announcing a larger than expected €60B per month bond purchasing program until at least September 2016.
- The ECB's negative interest rates and bond purchasing are intended to drive investors into riskier assets, though political issues like Greece's election could disrupt markets.

Time can be an investor's best friend or worst enemy when investing. While time allows investors to ride out market volatility and participate in recoveries, lack of time can force riskier moves close to retirement. Research showed that between 2002-2016, the worst cumulative return over 3 years in the South African equity market was 0.76%, including the 2008 crash. Returns improve over 5+ years. Short term (1 month, 1 year) returns saw larger variances. The analysis demonstrates that remaining invested long-term in equities, through allocating assets appropriately based on risk tolerance and time horizon, can avoid losses to inflation. Timing the market is difficult and often means buying high and selling low.
Venture capital performance outpaced public markets across most time horizons in the fourth quarter of 2007. The one-year private equity performance index showed an 8.9 point decrease to 19.5% while five year performance increased from 7.0% to 8.5%. Economic troubles in 2008 could impact short term venture capital returns if the IPO market remains slow, but longer term returns would need over a year of poor exit opportunities to suffer. Venture returns across all horizons, except five years, outperformed the NASDAQ and S&P 500 through the end of 2007.

Security analysis and portfolio managementHimanshu Jain
Live Project was all about studying the company’s financial health through the movement of their stock price. This live project deals with the basic concepts of investment in securities such as bonds and stocks, and management of such assets. It discusses various aspects of portfolio management, ranging from analysis, selection, and revision to evaluation of portfolio, securities market and risk evaluation that help in understanding the trading system better and making quality investment decisions.
This live project helped to understand how the stock prices vary. It also helped to know and calculate several technical terms. In this project, I was given 5 stocks wherein I need to update opening price, closing price, % change, total shares traded etc. every day. Then it is required to find out the beta, average return etc. of these stocks separately and construct a portfolio with Rs. 50, 00,000 keeping in mind optimum return for the investment. We need to keep in mind beta, standard deviation, risk and return of these stocks and invest to get the optimum returns.
This project helps in knowing the expected return and risk for each stock. Under this project I got to know about portfolio management as well as expected return & risk associate with each company. Through this project my future investment will be better as it helps in knowing the inside depth of companies by analysis the financial details.

SFW Australia is rated positively given its scarcity value as one of two listed vertically integrated wealth managers in Australia. The stock offers upside for strategic acquirers at its current sum-of-parts valuation of 42 cents per share. Potential acquirers include regional banks, third tier lenders, trustee companies, and diversified wealth managers seeking to expand their distribution networks and mitigate key person risks. The deferral of mandatory FOFA reforms to 2013 will drive further sector consolidation as smaller players exit and larger players pursue acquisitions.

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.

OJP data from firms like Vicinity Jobs have emerged as a complement to traditional sources of labour demand data, such as the Job Vacancy and Wages Survey (JVWS). Ibrahim Abuallail, PhD Candidate, University of Ottawa, presented research relating to bias in OJPs and a proposed approach to effectively adjust OJP data to complement existing official data (such as from the JVWS) and improve the measurement of labour demand.
Vicinity Jobs’ data includes more than three million 2023 OJPs and thousands of skills. Most skills appear in less than 0.02% of job postings, so most postings rely on a small subset of commonly used terms, like teamwork.
Laura Adkins-Hackett, Economist, LMIC, and Sukriti Trehan, Data Scientist, LMIC, presented their research exploring trends in the skills listed in OJPs to develop a deeper understanding of in-demand skills. This research project uses pointwise mutual information and other methods to extract more information about common skills from the relationships between skills, occupations and regions.

Flexible Equity Euro Long-Short (Market Neutral) strategy
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
The strategy seeks long-term capital
appreciation with minimal correlation to
the general stock market while trying to
keep volatility about half that of the stock
market in which it is invested. It generally
takes long positions in securities of
European companies that score high in the
proprietary methodology and at the same
time have a short exposure (via futures) to
equity indices like the Euro STOXX 50.

PORTFOLIO CHARACTERISTICS
In the nine months of 2017 the strategy averaged gross long exposure of 91% and gross short exposure of
67%, resulting in 24% net exposure across the portfolio.
A reasonable benchmark for the fund’s performance is an adjusted EURO STOXX 50 Index, which takes the
fund’s average net exposure and multiplies it by the index return, resulting in a 2.99% for the year to date
period. Hence, while our contribution year to date, 3.88%, is satisfactory, we recognize that the 1 year
performance has been delusional due to a rebound in lower quality stocks and a very positive performance
of the financial sector (where we are net short).
In any case, we are firmly convinced that a strategy where we are long a basket of the the cheapest quality
group of stocks and short the index is a valid proposition to build alpha with no correlations with the market.
