Book excerpt: Master the fundamentals, hone your business instincts, and save a fortune in tuition. The consensus is clear: MBA programs are a waste of time and money. Even the elite schools offer outdated assembly-line educations about profit-and-loss statements and PowerPoint presentations. After two years poring over sanitized case studies, students are shuffled off into middle management to find out how business really works. Josh Kaufman has made a business out of distilling the core principles of business and delivering them quickly and concisely to people at all stages of their careers. His blog has introduced hundreds of thousands of readers to the best business books and most powerful business concepts of all time. In The Personal MBA, he shares the essentials of sales, marketing, negotiation, strategy, and much more. True leaders aren't made by business schools-they make themselves, seeking out the knowledge, skills, and experiences they need to succeed. Read this book and in one week you will learn the principles it takes most people a lifetime to master.

Download or read book Identifying Stock Market Bubbles written by Azar Karimov and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-09-29 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces readers to a new approach to identifying stock market bubbles by using the illiquidity premium, a parameter derived by employing conic finance theory. Further, it shows how to develop the closed form formulas of the bid and ask prices of European options by using Black-Scholes and Kou models. By using the derived formulas and sliding windows technique, the book explains how to numerically calculate illiquidity premiums. The methods introduced here will enable readers interested in risk management, portfolio optimization and hedging in real-time to identify when asset prices are in a bubble state and when that bubble bursts. Moreover, the techniques discussed will allow them to accurately recognize periods of exuberance and panic, and to measure how different strategies work during these phases with respect to calmer periods of market behavior. A brief history of financial bubbles and an outlook on future developments serve to round out the coverage.

Download or read book The Indispensable Brand written by Mitch Duckler and published by Windsor House Press. This book was released on 2019-03-26 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to market research conducted on more than 6,000 brands over a 10-year period, the proportion of people willing to endorse any brand as different from other brands is extremely low. Over the past two decades, a relentless focus on digital activation--without equal effort on establishing differentiated positioning--has made even once-great brands indistinguishable from the pack. The result: an environment that can only be described as brand monotony, which underwhelms and disappoints customers, and negatively impacts top- and bottom-line business performance. In The Indispensable Brand, Mitch Duckler draws on 25+ years of brand strategy experience to provide a wake-up call for any modern-day marketer or business leader--and a roadmap to more effective brand differentiation. Leveraging empirical market research and dozens of case studies, this book provides a 360-degree view on brand-building, focusing on strategy (e.g., positioning, architecture, and extendibility) as well as development (e.g., experience, story, and activation), and helping marketers transform their brands from indistinguishable to indispensable.

Download or read book Finding the Bad Apples in the Barrel Using the Market Value of Equity to Signal Banking Sector Vulnerabilities written by Will Kerry and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2019-08-16 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper measures the performance of different metrics in assessing banking system vulnerabilities. It finds that metrics based on equity market valuations of bank capital are better than regulatory capital ratios, and other metrics, in spotting banks that failed (bad apples). This paper proposes that these market-based ratios could be used as a surveillance tool to assess vulnerabilities in the banking sector. While the measures may provide a somewhat fuzzy signal, it is better to have a strategy for identifying bad apples, even if sometimes the apples turn out to be fine, than not being able to spot any bad apples before the barrel has been spoiled.
