Because of health-related issues in my family, our Finance 4335 class will not meet in person next week and will proceed asynchronously on March 12th and 14th. We will continue as planned, concluding our discussion of the Asymmetric Information topic on March 12th and beginning the Portfolio Theory topic on March 14th.
I’ve uploaded lectures for both of these dates: “Asymmetric Information and Adverse Selection” on March 12th and “Portfolio Theory” on March 14th. Since Finance 4335 will not meet in person this week, I expect everyone to watch and report on both lectures online. To earn attendance and participation credits, watch both lectures and submit synopses for each in PDF format via Canvas. The synopsis for the March 12th lecture is due at 5 pm on March 13th, and the synopsis for the March 14th lecture is due at 5 pm on March 15th. I have created two separate assignments for your lecture synopses that can be found on the course Assignments page on Canvas.
I will also be available for virtual (Zoom) office hours on Tuesday, March 12, and Thursday, March 14, from 3:30-4:30 p.m. To meet with me, type “officehours.garven.com” in the address field of your device’s web browser. If you like, you can also make an appointment on MW by typing “appointment.garven.com” in the address field of your device’s web browser.
