11/24/06 3:30 pm. A little more than one week to go on MV4. During your project time, please stop by the revamped university page on the Minyanville website. Your comments and thoughts on content/layout are welcome.

11/11/06 6:40 pm. On a related note to the MV4 project, I'm working on the content and layout of Minyanville's university page. The vision is to create a web space where novices can learn about financial markets in a way that is not overwhelming or intimidating, while still being fresh and connected to daily market happenings. If you have a chance, stop by the page, have a look, and then ping me with thoughts you might have. For example, how might the content or layout be improved? What kinds of modules or features would you like to see? Would you return to this site once the MV4 project is over? Any ideas/feedback would be appreciated.
11/3/06 6:45 pm. About 4 weeks left in MV4. Make sure you're completing your timesheets--and doing so in an accurate manner. As noted previously, please don't over-report your time spent! Doing so will render the research analysis useless.

9/14/06 6:45 pm. Go here to download a timesheet for tracking your MV4 time. As noted in class, please be don't over-report your time. It will mess up the data and analysis.

8/31/06 8:35 pm. Background on the MV4 project has been posted. It includes the requirements and incentive for participating in the extra credit project. Please read thru. I'll be looking for signals of commitment beginning the week of 9/4.
