In Pursuit of the Perfect Portfolio examines this question by profiling and interviewing ten of the most prominent figures in the finance world-Jack Bogle, Charley Ellis, Gene Fama, Marty Liebowitz, Harry Markowitz, Bob Merton, Myron Scholes, Bill Sharpe, Bob Shiller, and Jeremy Siegel. We learn about the personal and intellectual journeys of these luminaries-which include six Nobel Laureates and a trailblazer in mutual funds-and their most innovative contributions. In the process, we come to understand how the science of modern investing came to be. Each of these finance greats discusses their idea of a perfect portfolio, offering invaluable insights to today's investors.Inspiring such monikers as the Bond Guru, Wall Street's Wisest Man, and the Wizard of Wharton, these pioneers of investment management provide candid perspectives, both expected and surprising, on a vast array of investment topics-effective diversification, passive versus active investment, security selection and market timing, foreign versus domestic investments, derivative securities, nontraditional assets, irrational investing, and so much more. While the perfect portfolio is ultimately a moving target based on individual age and stage in life, market conditions, and short- and long-term goals, the fundamental principles for success remain constant.Aimed at novice and professional investors alike, In Pursuit of the Perfect Portfolio is a compendium of financial wisdom that no market enthusiast will want to be without. 606 $aPortfolio management 606 $aCapitalists and financiers 606 $aInvestments 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPortfolio management. 615 0$aCapitalists and financiers. 615 0$aInvestments. 676 $a332.60922 700 $aLo$b Andrew W$g(Andrew Wen-Chuan)$0117381 702 $aFoerster$b Stephen Robert 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910554488503321 996 $aIn pursuit of the perfect portfolio$92815652 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02485oam 2200661 450 001 9910706188503321 005 20170818105110.0 035 $a(CKB)5470000002454538 035 $a(OCoLC)891598600$z(OCoLC)966447494 035 $a(OCoLC)995470000002454538 035 $a(EXLCZ)995470000002454538 100 $a20140929d1964 ua 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aWater resources of the Upper Colorado River Basin $ebasic data /$fby W.

Highlighting the frequently ignored decades of the 1940s and 1950s, Burrell documents a radical cohort of theatre artists who became critical players in the fight for civil rights both onstage and offstage, between the Popular Front and the Black Arts Movement periods. The Civil Rights Theatre Movementrecovers knowledge of little-known groups like the Negro Playwrights Company and reconsiders Broadway hits including Lorraine Hansberry's A Raisin in the Sun, showing how theatre artists staged radically innovative performances that protested Jim Crow and U.S. imperialism amidst a repressive Cold War atmosphere. By conceiving of class and gender as intertwining aspects of racism, this book reveals how civil rights theatre artists challenged audiences to reimagine the fundamental character of American democracy. 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Theatre and Performance History,$x2947-5775 606 $aTheater$xHistory 606 $aTheater 606 $aPerforming arts 606 $aTheatre History 606 $aNational and Regional Theatre and Performance 606 $aTheatre and Performance Arts 615 0$aTheater$xHistory. 615 0$aTheater. 615 0$aPerforming arts. 615 14$aTheatre History. 615 24$aNational and Regional Theatre and Performance. 615 24$aTheatre and Performance Arts. 676 $a792.08996073 676 $a792.08996073 700 $aBurrell$b Julie$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01080525 801 0$bMiFhGG 801 1$bMiFhGG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483442503321 996 $aThe Civil Rights Theatre movement in New York, 1939-1966$93871010 997 $aUNINA
