Abstract
This seminar is for students who are interested in studying financial markets and instruments, asset-pricing models, investment strategies and alternative investments. We will talk about stocks, bonds, currencies, cryptocurrencies, real estate and other asset classes. We will talk about the main asset-pricing models: the CAPM, the APT, and empirical multifactor models. We will learn how to test these models on various financial markets and which risk factors explain asset returns. We will talk about financial anomalies and investment strategies which exploit these anomalies. We will search for mispricing or arbitrage opportunities in different markets, try to exploit them or provide explanations for them. This seminar is empirical and assumes working with financial data. Students need to know such courses as Financial Economics, Theory of Finance, Financial Econometrics. Knowledge of Phyton or programming in Stata will be useful. This seminar will be interesting for those who want to pursue a career in an investment fund, commercial bank, asset management firm, etc.
