About the Lecture
George Soros extends his “theory of reflexivity” from abstraction to application in the realm of investing. His book, The New Paradigm for Financial Markets, offers a timely look at the credit crisis that reached crescendo in 2008. His views fall between prescience and vindication. Nevertheless, he concedes fallibility: “With all my great, deep understanding, I don’t always get the markets right.” Read the rest of this entry »

Robert Merton: Observations on the Science of Finance in the Practice of Finance | MIT World
In Investment GIANTS on August 1, 2009 at 10:04 PMThere’s much to learn from Nobel Laureate Robert Merton, both what to do and what not to do.
Hailed as the Newton of Modern Finance, in academic circles he’s perhaps most famous for the Black-Scholes-Merton options pricing formula, for which he shared the 1998 Nobel Prize for Economics.
In 1998 Merton was partly to blame for the collapse of Long Term Capital Management–a hedge fund which failed spectacularly by losing $4.6 billion in less than four months. In January 2009, his financial advisory firm Trinsum Group, filed for bankruptcy.
