About the Book

This text offers accurate and intuitive coverage of investments, with an emphasis on portfolio theory. It includes extensive discussion of capital asset pricing, arbitrage pricing, pricing of derivative securities, interest rates and bond management. Stock valuation, estimating future earnings and dividends and fixed income markets are examined. Calculus is useful, but not required, since it is used only in the appendixes to the main discussions in the chapters.

Features:
The book differentiates itself in the following respects. First, the coverage of portfolio theory is complete and detailed, covering four chapters including a unique graphical explanation of the Markowitz procedure, as well as a new chapter on asset allocation using comprehensive simulations with real data. Second, extensive coverage is given to the issues related to capital asset pricing. The capital asset pricing model is covered in great detail. Emphasis is given to discriminating between the properties of the model that derive from economics and the properties that derive from definitional identities. The coverage of the arbitrage pricing theory is both complete and up-to-date. The issues involved in testing both CAPM and APT are also explored in detail. Indian cases have been added and data updation.

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
