Best of me

Two fascinating lectures.

1. Goldman Sachs tells us how funding against the fed funds effective rate for collateralized OTC trades challenges the traditional discounting based on LIBOR. As interesting as this was, I fear we'll be obsolete even before we graduate!
2. From the Binomial pricing model to the Black Scholes. One of the most ingenuous derivations in financial mathematics. A Nobel prize winning idea. We're ready to listen to it from the horse's mouth next week.

I'm sorry to be so geeky and selfish today. But I won't say much more.
Suffice to say, this day pretty much got the best of me :)
