  1. From the discussion Toronto International Film Festival

    Yes I attended the premier of the Coen brothers latest—A Serious Man. Although I found the characters fascinating, I’m not sure it will have the broad market appeal of a Big Lebowski or Fargo.

    Fewer choices will help those who “game” the exam. Not a good move in my opinion.

  5. From the discussion In terms of Returns vesus Risks, which mode of investment is better?

    Sat, 22 Nov 2008 20:21:48 -0000

    With the current levels of volatity, even broadly diversified portfolios are underwater, even for investors with a time horizon > 10 years. On Nov 20, The S/P 500 returned to 1997 levels. 11.5 years invested in an index of the 500 Largests Companies gave the buy an hold investor a return of 0. GICs anyone?

  6. From the discussion Can we have freedom to give CFA exam whenever we want?

    Sat, 22 Nov 2008 20:16:37 -0000

    I was pleased with the flexibility of taking the Level I exam in Dec. If the semi annual option was available for Levels II and III, that would give enough flexibility for most candidates
