Equity Markets and Portfolio Analysis / Bloomberg Professional (PDF)

Understand today's investment challenges and the role of the
Bloomberg system

In recent years, changes have swept through the investment
industry like wildfire. Academia has followed along and provided
new lenses for viewing this transformation, as well as new
strategies for gaining a true understanding and knowledge of
investment and financial markets. Now, Equity Markets and
Portfolio Analysis has been created to further inform
investment professionals and finance students on the basic concepts
and strategies of investments, and to provide more detailed
discussions on advanced strategies and models. The concepts covered
in this book will help readers gain a better understanding of the
markets and uses for an increasing number of securities,
strategies, and methodologies.

Equity Markets and Portfolio Analysis is the only core
investment book that covers the functionality of Bloomberg
terminals, increasingly critical tools both in the classroom and on
the trading floor. As Bloomberg terminals now play a key role in
the research, teaching, and managing of student investment funds,
understanding the system's information and analytical functions has
become more important than ever.
