Models of intertemporal choice and asset pricing are developed and applied to a broad range of investment topics: risk-return relationships, portfolio theory and diversification, arbitrage, market efficiency, and pricing of derivative assets. Coverage of equity securities is particularly emphasized. Format: ECON 442 is delivered in distance education format only. Registered students will be contacted by the instructor via Binghamton e-mail account just prior to the start of the session. Reliable computer and Internet access, as well as a Binghamton e-mail account, are required.
