ETFs - Past, Present, Future
- The document discusses the history and evolution of ETFs from their origins in the 1990s to their present state and future outlook.
- ETFs now offer access to nearly every asset class and have proliferated greatly beyond just broad equity indexes. However, the retail market in Europe remains underdeveloped compared to institutional use.
- For ETFs to further expand at the retail level in Europe, greater investor demand, trading volume/liquidity, transparency, and ease of cross-border transactions are needed. Consolidation around the largest providers is also expected.

Industrial capitalism
Liberalism and capitalism are discussed. Capitalism involves private ownership of production means and workers exchanging labor for wages. The economy aims for personal interest and profit. Prices adjust via supply and demand. Poor planning leads to economic crises. Banks lend capital to savers and industrialists. Public corporations issue stocks that can be traded, allowing investment from many.
2014 note about china a shares

China Reform
China has implemented significant political and economic reforms over the past 20-30 years as it transitions from a centrally planned economy to a more market-based one. Reforms have included increasing academic and speech freedoms in some cities, reducing income gaps, and pursuing financial sector reforms. However, China still has a long way to go in areas like increasing transparency and reducing corruption. The financial system also remains imbalanced with too high of a share of GDP coming from investment and real estate rather than household consumption. China is working to rebalance its economy by increasing consumption through reforms like raising deposit rates and limiting real estate speculation. Overall, China's transition to a more market-based and rebalanced economic model will likely mean lower but still
Value Investing
The document discusses value investing strategies in the U.S. and China stock markets. It analyzes data showing that allocating 15% of a portfolio to hedge funds can increase returns by 0.3-0.5% while reducing risk. However, the wide variation in hedge fund performance shows the importance of manager selection. Seasonal patterns are identified, with better performance periods in the U.S. from June-April and in China from September-March. The document recommends a long/short strategy taking long positions in the outperforming market and short positions in the other to reduce correlation and obtain profits.
Hedge Fund Industry
The document provides an overview of the hedge fund industry globally and in China. It discusses the growth of the industry historically and key statistics in 2013. Hedge funds originated in the US but have expanded to other markets like China in recent years. While hedge funds have been recognized in China since 2012, the industry remains less developed there due to regulations and investor preferences. The document also examines the strategies, performance and fees of hedge funds based on various reports.
Excel Demo
This document contains multiple charts and graphs related to financial topics such as net present value, stock prices, interest rates, and cash flow. It shows the relationship between NPV and discount rates, Black-Scholes stock prices versus intrinsic value, and how future value changes with years. Additional charts show the relationships between stock returns and market indexes, as well as distributions of sales amounts and numbers of deals by month. Tables provide information on cash flow, building costs and schedules, and projected monthly revenues.
NSIT Valuation
During 2012, NSIT reduced long-term debt and improved solvency due to economic downturn, but poor receivable management hurt liquidity. Various valuation methods show NSIT is undervalued at its current price. While NSIT has potential for growth, its profitability and liquidity are currently slightly weak compared to peers.
RTN Optimal Capital Structure
The document presents an analysis of the optimal capital structure for a company using different debt to equity ratios, estimating the weighted average cost of capital and implied value. It shows how varying the debt to equity ratio impacts the cost of debt and equity, weighted average cost of capital, bond ratings, and overall implied corporate value. The purpose is to determine the optimal capital structure that minimizes a company's overall cost of capital.
RTN, BA, 3M, CAT Industry Analysis
This document analyzes four major industrial companies - Raytheon, Boeing, 3M, and Caterpillar. It identifies common risks across the industry like economic conditions, government policies, foreign exchange rates. It also outlines firm-specific risks for each company. The document then discusses how each company manages risks, like diversifying sales, hedging foreign exchange, and monitoring contract performance. It analyzes the optimal capital structure for each firm based on their cost of debt and equity. While Raytheon and Boeing maintain low debt ratios given their large scale, 3M and Caterpillar's capital structures may gradually change due to their different cost of capital profiles.

CAT- Foreign Exchange Management
Caterpillar faces various foreign exchange risks including accounting/translation exposure from past exchange rate changes, transaction exposure from outstanding foreign currency contracts to be settled in the future, and operating exposure from potential impacts of future exchange rate changes on cash flows. To manage these exposures, Caterpillar uses hedging strategies such as foreign currency forwards and options, and aims to match foreign currency assets and liabilities.

Portfolio Management
This document outlines Gangming Liang's portfolio management strategy to achieve a goal of buying a $1M house in the Bay Area within 5 years. The portfolio aims for a moderate to high risk tolerance with an expected annual return of 14.87% through a strategy of rebalancing and exploiting imperfect asset correlations. The portfolio consists of a diversified mix of international stocks, US large cap stocks, small cap stocks, and short-term bonds. Technical analysis indicates the current market may be reaching the top of its cycle.
Fame Value Security Analysis Competition- EDU
This document provides a recommendation to buy stock in New Oriental Education and Technology Group (ticker: EDU). EDU has strong growth, little debt, and performs better than peers in areas like profitability and efficiency. Various valuation models estimate EDU's intrinsic value at $39.19-$129.7, significantly higher than the current price. Technical analysis also points to a potential cyclical breakout and price increase to $33.5/share near March 2012. The recommendation is to buy EDU stock near March when seasonal factors may boost the price.
The Recent View of Green Buildings
1. The document summarizes the internship of Gangming Liang at Kevin Stephens Design Group as a green investment analyst. His tasks included constructing financial models, analyzing costs and benefits, and researching green value for KSDG's green energy projects.
2. Green buildings provide direct benefits like energy and water savings, lower operating costs, and indirect benefits like improved health and productivity. Energy savings alone can provide a 20-year net present value of $4-16 per square foot.
3. Green buildings also reduce carbon emissions, create jobs, and have lower overall operational costs compared to traditional buildings. Investing in green buildings' energy efficiency can create large economic and environmental benefits.
