Softcover. Condizione: gut. Auflage: 5th (2008). CFA examination Wall Street Journal financial institutions investor investment concepts investment concepts investments market security markets asset allocation futures options derivative security markets Stocks Bonds gold silver commodites funds Even a cursory glance at The Wall Street Journal reveals a bewildering collection of securities, markets, and financial institutions. I used this book to help me prepare for the CFA examination. The book presents a wide spectrum of investment information in a easy to understand manner. The authors provide many examples to assist the reader in understanding many complicated investment concepts. I would say that this book is geared to someone already in the industry or for an individual that wishes to enter the industry or become a serious investor. I recommend this book highly without any reservations. Bodie/Kane/Marcus' book is the leading textbook in the graduate investments market. It is recognized as the best blend of practical and theoretical coverage, while maintaining an appropriate rigor and clear writing style. Its unifying theme is that security markets are nearly efficient, meaning that most securities are usually priced appropriately given their risk and return attributes. The text places greater emphasis on asset allocation, and offers a much broader and deeper treatment of futures, options, and other derivative security markets than most investment texts.

Small 8vo. 3pp. On Marconi's black-bordered Piccadilly stationery. To Australian newspaperman, Tory MP and "father" of imperial penny postage, John Henniker Heaton (1848-1914). Thanks very much for your most interesting publication on "An ideal post office." It is a great advantage to be able to get such a concise précis of your views and proposals. I think it's absurd that we have not yet got universal penny postage but you are the man to get it. I fear I shall not be in town at the time of the opening of Parliament. I therefore return you the ticket you have so kindly sent me. When are you coming to town? My fiancée is very anxious to meet you."At age 20, Marconi began his experiments with electromagnetic waves, out of which he conceived the idea of wireless telegraphy. In 1900 he filed his famous Patent No. 7777 for Improvements in Apparatus for Wireless Telegraphy, allowing receiving stations to operate on different wavelengths simultaneously without interference. Marconi's fame was assured one year later when he became the first to transmit transatlantic wireless signals. In winning the Nobel Prize in 1909, he continued to conduct experiments in radio communication and eventually led his company into building short-wave broadcasting stations. Marconi and Heaton were already well acquainted. As MP, "Heaton hoped accompanied Heaton to King Edward VII's coronation in 1902. As MP, "Heaton hoped that Australian nationalism would not sever ties with Britain but his imperial federationism was practical; planning 'to stick the Empire together with a penny stamp'; he campaigned long for cheaper postal and telegraphic charges. His original scheme for imperial penny postage was derided in 1886 but in 1898 became the rule from Britain to all parts of the empire except Australia. In 1905 the first penny letter from Britain to Australia was posted and in 1911 Australia at last reciprocated. By then Heaton had espoused a new cause, penny-a-word telegrams throughout the empire." (Australian Dictionary of Biography). Our letter mentions Marconi's fiancée Beatrice O'Brien, daughter of the 14th Baron Inchiquin of Ireland. Darkly written, folded and in fine condition.…

8vo 2½ pp. on bifolium. In French. Historically important letter to the later French president Paul Deschanel, congratulating him on the book "La politique française en Océanie. À propos du Canal de Panama" that was written in support of the French project for the construction of the Panama canal. The text of the letter was inserted as a preface to the 1884 publication of Deschanel's work with minimal changes. Affirming the argument of the book, Lesseps stresses the "economical revolution" for France's "colonial politics" that the "piercing of the isthmus of Panama" will entail, while warning that important measures have to be taken in advance. Lesseps predicts "a bright future" for the Society Islands, "situated directly en route to Panama", if two crucial conditions are met: 1) that "the ships will find the necessary facilities and resources on Tahiti" and 2) that "we secure the surrounding ports". Therefore, he calls for the preparation of "a line of French liners across the Pacific", citing "our great Company of the Messageries Maritimes" as a model. In closing, Lesseps makes the effort seem small and invokes patriotic fervour: "It is not a question of a warlike expedition, nor of considerable financial sacrifices; nor of conquering a new colony, but only of reaping what our fathers have sown; but there is one point which dominates them all: that we arrive in time. Your book is therefore not only a complete study of French interests in Polynesia, but also an act of patriotism". - The letter must be seen as part of the publicity and lobbying campaign for the ill-fated construction project that had started in 1881. When Lesseps wrote the letter to Deschanel, his "Compagnie universelle du canal interocéanique de Panama" already struggled with a significant financing gap and lagged far behind its construction schedule. From 1885, Lesseps and his partners would start selling shares to small investors; a last stock issue in 1888, when the bankruptcy of the company was already immanent, had only been possible due to corruption. Although the company was effectively bankrupt by 1889 and all works came to a halt, France delayed its liquidation until 1892. The ensuing Panama Canal Scandal led to the collapse of three French governments and a large corruption trial against Ferdinand de Lesseps, his son Charles, and other managers. Another prominent defendant was the engineering contractor Gustave Eiffel, who was initially convicted but does not appear to have been involved in the corruption scheme and was acquitted in second trial. Lesseps' jail sentence was overturned based on a formal error, while his son served one year. Paul Deschanel (1855-1922), the recipient of the letter, was never implied in the scandal and even profited from it in the elections of 1893. - Traces of folds; minimal tears. - Paul Deschanel, La politique française en Océanie.
