Theory and Methodology of Tactical Asset Allocation
Wai Lee Manufacturer: Wiley ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover Similar Items:
ASIN: 1883249724 |
Book Description
Asset allocation has long been viewed as a safe bet for reducing risk in a portfolio. Asset allocators strive to buy when prices are low and sell when prices rise. Tactical asset allocation (TAA) practitioners tend to emphasize shorter-term adjustments, reducing exposure when recent market performance has been good, and increasing exposure in a slipping market (in contrast to dynamic asset allocation, or portfolio insurance). As interest in this technique continues to grow, J.P. Morgan's Wai Lee provides comprehensive coverage of the analytical tools needed to successfully implement and monitor tactical asset allocation.Customer Reviews:

Raymond Corbey Manufacturer: KIT Publishers ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 9068321978 |
Book Description
"Tribal Art Traffic" traces the movements of hundreds of thousands of masks, statues, amulets, shields, pieces of cloth, utensils, and weapons from overseas tribal cultures to and within North Atlantic societies, in colonial and post colonial times. While the focus is on the relatively small Low Countries and their huge overseas territories, the Belgian Congo and the Netherlands East Indies, related developments in three adjacent colonial powers, Germany, France, and the United Kingdom, are also covered, as are links to the United States.This book charts the means and places through which tribal objects circulated and continue to circulate: colonial trading posts, missionary posts, attics and cellars, living rooms, museums, flea markets, monasteries, auction houses, artists' studios, private collections, and art galleries - are
In the second part of the book dealers, collectors, and curators relate their more recent experiences with objects-in-motion. This chronicle of European taste, trade and desire sketches the emergence of a western market for tribal art in the course of the twentieth century.

Heroic Defeats: The Politics of Job Loss (Cambridge Studies in Comparative Politics)
Miriam A. Golden Manufacturer: Cambridge University Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 0521484324 |
Book Description
Heroic Defeats is a comparative investigation of how unions and firms interact when economic circumstances require substantial job loss. Using simple game theory to generate testable propositions about when these situations will result in industrial conflict, Professor Golden illustrates the theory in a range of situations between 1950 and 1985 in Japan, Italy, and Britain. Additionally, the author shows how the theory explains why strikes over job loss almost never occur in postwar unionized firms in the United States.

ASIN: 0595179150 |
Book Description
They were called aliens and enemies. But the World War II internees John Christgau writes about are shown to be ordinary people victimized by the politics of a global war. The Enemy Alien Internment Program in America was born with the United States’s declaration of war on Japan, Germany, and Italy, and lasted until 1946. In all, 31,275 enemy aliens were imprisoned in camps like the one described in this book—Ft. Lincoln, just south of Bismarck, North Dakota.In animated and suspenseful prose, Christgau tells the stories of several individual who were representative of the internee experience at Ft. Lincoln. The subjects’ lives before and after capture—presented in case studies—tell of encroaching bitterness and sorrow.
Christgau bases his reporting of events on voluminous and previously untouched National Archives and FBI documents in addition to letters, diaries, and interviews with his subjects. His captivating approach to unveiling the inside story of a unique episode in American history will rivet your attention from beginning to end.
