board-of-directors boards should
I should mention that I am a member of the board of directors of Dimensional Fund Advisors.
data class patterns
I had some of the students in my finance class actually do some empirical work on capital structures, to see if we could find any obvious patterns in the data, but we couldn't see any.
successful investing information
I favour passive investing for most investors, because markets are amazingly successful devices for incorporating information into stock prices.
thinking games people
If there's 10,000 people looking at the stocks and trying to pick winners, one in 10,000 is going to score, by chance alone, a great coup, and that's all that's going on. It's a game, it's a chance operation, and people think they are doing something purposeful... but they're really not.
taxation finance treasury
My expertise was in public finance, particularly corporate taxation, since I had worked at the US Treasury.
information investing function
Everybody has some information. The function of the markets is to aggregate that information, evaluate it and get it incorporated into prices.
mean majority investing
... Any pension fund manager who doesn't have the vast majority-and I mean 70% or 80% of his or her portfolio-in passive investments is guilty of malfeasance, nonfeasance or some other kind of bad feasance!
thinking people investing
Most people might just as well buy a share of the whole market, which pools all the information, than delude themselves into thinking they know something the market doesn't.
money
What counts is what you do with your money, not where it came from.
bucks information serious
To beat the market you'll have to invest serious bucks to dig up information no one else has yet.
writing people would-be
Writers would be warm, loyal, and otherwise terrific people-if only they'd stop writing.
years cities focus
In many ways, our campaign this year will be the same as last time: We're still going to focus on fixing up basics and cleaning up ethics at City Hall.
children real book
Do the children who prefer books set in the real, ordinary, workaday world ever read as obsessively as those who would much rather be transported into other worlds entirely?
real cities people
Now it's time to focus on basics for people in our neighborhoods... and real ethics reform at City Hall.
