Welcome! My
research work is on asset valuation models (Technology
Stocks[f1], S&P 500
Index[SoB2] , Gold[f3],
Exchange Rates, Bonds and Real Estate[f4]).
I am also interested in measuring the performance of institutional investors
(Institutional Ownership and Returns[f5]), and
studying the effectiveness of various decision criteria implemented by
portfolio managers (Sell-Discipline[f6]). My
other current projects involve examining issues of pay equity within a
corporate governance framework and examining the characteristics of value vs.
growth portfolios that are managed privately and publicly. Like many of my peers, I believe
it is important to do ‘meaningful’ research. For me, the bottom line is when
the problem tackled and the solutions offered have indisputable
relevancy and usefulness to the practice of the art, at least in the foreseeable
future. I personally strive to meet that standard. In this link, A
critical essay about the state of knowledge in Finance (circa 2004), I take
the view that our field has not answered very basic questions, and is still
using very blunt and often ineffective tools. In that essay I suggest that
we, Finance academics, may wish to adopt a stronger article of faith focusing
on providing solutions that work; the same way medicine and
engineering sciences have succeeded to do in the course of their history. Updated
