I know that it is tempting to skip the Q&A discussion part of the lecture or simply skim through it, but the fact that this course happens while the financial crisis was unfolding, gives you great perspective about then realities and how the stuff being taught at the lecture or the one before it relates to the same. This coupled with hindsight perspective of what happened will really give you an innate understanding of financial crisis while you're doing an introductory course to finance.
Present value is the bedrock of finance. In order to calculate the value of any asset (stocks, bonds, corporations...), you need to master present value.
these lectures are amazing and timeless, can't believe a graduate level course taught by Andrew Lo has been made available for free online. Although I do wonder how someone like him could use the the Greek symbol for p (π), especially in the context of an equation, and not expect people to assume it's actually referring to Pi 😅glad a student asked about it because I was also thinking "interesting, how does a circle play into this?.." 😂
Because of this professor I start believing the importance of financial. Wonderful person. Thanks a lot professor. Hope one day I will be your place and teaching others about finance may be not in MIT. Thanks once again.
- leverage is dangerous on volatile instruments, not on fixed - think about money as consumption, both about nominal value i.e. re. inflation, what can I consume in the following year? vs. nominal value (am I focusing on nominal or real returns?) - when discounting/compounded CF, do it consistently either nominal or real inflation - bonds have less liquidity - bond: instead of "can you lend me", can "you buy my bond?" - textbook answer: PV / pragmatic: market (auction) - STRIPS - taking coupons on Govt bonda and selling them to investors that wanted bonds maturing at face vakue in a shorter time
Time value is indeed the concept that people prefer money now to money later; but inflation is related to that desire as most people prefer to spend now than later due to the fact that inflation will destroy the value of their dollar in the future. Inflation is the cause of people wanting to spend now than later.
What edition of the book are we supposed to be reading? The OCW says 9th edition but chapter 23 at least (he says to read 23-25) has absolutely nothing to do with what he's talking about as far as I can tell
Thank god someone asked what is pi here haha being a scientist this was really disturbing me whilst understanding the equation!! Haha i was like what how it is equal to pi?? Thanks prof for ur lectures 🙏🏻🙏🏻☺️☺️
If the coupon bond interest rate is 5% and the discount bond interest rate is also 5%, why would anyone buy the discount bond? The discount only pays off at the end of the term. If the guy/company/government dies before the maturity date, then I lost my principle AND my interest. That's an 1150 dollar loss in his example. If I bought the coupon instead and the guy/company/government dies, then at least I got an interest payment or two....bringing my total loss down to 1100 or maybe 1050. What I'm saying is.....the only way I would buy the discount bond is if my return on investment was going to be greater than my return on the coupon bond. Am I missing something here?
The coupon bond will have a higher market price, because those extra coupon payments are going to be factored into the net present value. So if the market were perfectly efficient, you couldn't make extra profit from buying the coupon bond, because it was worth more in the beginning. And the additional amount that you would pay for it at time t=0 would be exactly the same as the extra interest associated with it over the lifetime of the bond.

We are currently teaching individuals and companies how to trade stocks, forex and crypto currency.
Watch our video to get started.
What happened to Mr Jonathan Gruber, heard he got fired
It’s amazing to watch these lectures as they are happening right in the midst of the financial crisis in late 2008
Im watching these in the new crisis, yey.

Mathematicians use the Greek letter pi refer to many, many different things that have nothing to do with circles! It very much depends on the context.

Nowadays they're negative!
Andrew lo is great, and the questions students ask are great as well :)
Thank Internet to give me an opportunity of joining such a inspiring lecuture!

What is the value of my asset when I put down $100 000 on a US$500 000 Mortgage?
$500 000 or $100 000?
Do the fed really cut the interest rate ???
I wonder where all these students are now...
Okay, idk what other universities he's taught at but who on earth sees the pi symbol and doesn't assume 3.14...?
Does anybody know where is the ”Wednesday lecture” he mentions in the beginning and whether it has been uploaded?

What a cliffhanger! I wonder if the fed will cut rates 🤔

“and Thats a lot cheaper than when oil was at 40$ a barrel”
why wasn’t it nuts? speculate on higher prices, and/or uncle sucker subsidizes your losses, so you can transfer your risks to other folks.
This is gold!
If the market establishes rates how can the fed cut them?
It seems as if the fed would not have control over what people are willing to pay
Thank You
