tender offer 標購;股權收購;(Tender Offer主要是指收購者面向股東,繞過管理層提出收購公司的價格建議。多個標購者會在價格競爭中表達自己的戰略意圖和管理能力,在股東和董事會的公開選擇下勝出。所以許多經濟學家把Tender Offer,稱為對資本主義的修正,是資本主義的"修理廠",可以提高資本主義的效率。很多企業特別是在繁榮的時候,更多想到成就感,買飛機、買游輪,高額消費,實際是損害股東利益,而股東又無法制約。因為在美國,股權是分散在千百萬股民手里,不是公司的直接所有者,所以他只能"用腳投票"的方式選擇公司而不是管理者,這樣助長了管理層浪費公司資本的情況。

BOP (balance of payments) 國際收支 國際收支平衡表(Balance of Payments Statement)是一個國家在一定時期內(一年、半年、一季或一個月)所有對外外匯收支的系統記錄,并應用會計原則,是按照會計核算的借貸平衡方式編制,經過調整最終達到帳面上收付平衡的統計報表。它包括經常項目(Current Acount)、資本項目(Capital Account)、平衡項目三大類。經常項目是其中最重要、最基本的項目,是一個實項目,其所記錄的各項交易都是以所有權的轉移為特征的。資本項目反映的是以貨幣表示的債權、債務在國際問的變動,所記錄的交易是以轉換使用權而所有權不變為特征的。因此因借貸資本而衍生之利息、股利、利潤等則屬于經常項目項下的勞務收支。平衡項目則是對自主性交易出現缺口或差額時進行的彌補性交易的記錄,以及為最終正式帳面平衡所進行會計調整的記錄,其作用在于最終實現國際收支平衡表中外匯收入與外匯支出相等,達成帳面上的平衡。

currency board "貨幣發行局(機制) 在貨幣自由浮動的國家,一般都能享有貨幣政策的自主權,而貨幣政策(monetary policy)往往是影響經濟的一種手段。例如經濟疲弱,銀行沒有足夠銀根借予企業,便會將利率推高,于是企業可能會因為利率高企,而被迫裁員,甚至結業。對此情況,政府可透過貨幣政策去放寬銀根,令銀行有充足金錢去借給企業,達到刺激經濟的目的。不過,在放寬銀根的同時,亦會導致通脹上升,不利該國的貨幣,匯兌會有貶值的壓力。
一個國家貨幣匯率的穩定性是十分重要,特別是一個國家的國民生產總值若大部分與國際貿易有關,穩定的匯價對于出入口商進行國際貿易將更為方便。以港元為例,以1美元兌7.8港元的匯率進行兌換,出入口商便不用考慮美元兌港元的匯率風險。而貨幣發行局機制,基本是穩定匯率的一種辦法。以港元為例,每發行一元港幣便需有等值美元(根據7.8換算)支持。理論上,由于發行港幣時要有美元支持,就算把港元全面收回,政府亦有足夠的美元儲備去應付,所以港元兌美元匯率可以固定在7.8的水平。不過,貨幣發行局機制的一個缺點,是政府會損失貨幣政策的自主性,因為匯價穩定,政府就不能用貨幣政策去干預市場。 "

expectational vs. historical 這也就是為什么有兩種計算variance的公式的原因:一種是估計值,所以的E(x),用P(i)*R(iI)來計算;另外一種則是歷史數據,所以要除以n(如是sample,則除以n-1);另外Cov的計算方法也不一樣,一種是Pi*(R(i)-E(i)),一種是除以N,總之區別就是一種用概率p,一種則是除以n。另外記住,Corr的公式是Cov/S1*S2。

interest rate parity theorem "利息平價理論 利率平價理論 (Interest Rate Parity) 指出,在匯率和利率之間應該有套戥的機會。它的意思是,一個貨幣的升值或貶值,都應該會隨著利率的改變而被抵消。比方說,如果美元利率比日圓利率高的話,那么根據利率平價理論,美元兌日圓應該會下跌。它的理據是,由于持有日圓要付出利息,所以投資者便需要通過匯率下跌來得到相應的補償。
但是,自1990年以來,盡管美元利率比日圓利率高,可是美元兌日圓卻升值了,所以利率平價理論被否定。其中一個理由是,投資者為了賺取更高的利息收入,而把資金轉移到高息的貨幣,因此令該高息貨幣升值。這種買賣策略被稱為 “carry trades”。"

purchasing power parity 購買力平價理論 (Purchasing Power Parity) 指出,貨幣匯率應該按照每個國家之間的相對物價為標準,也就是說,兩個貨幣的匯率應該等于這兩個國家的物價水平(以一固定攬子的貨物和服務來計算)的比例。因此,如果物價上升或出現通脹,貨幣就應該貶值,來抵消任何套戥的機會。而套戥機會的意思是,當同一件貨物有不同的價錢,買方與賣方就可以在沒有風險的情況下,通過短期的價格差距來獲得的利潤。

consideration 對價;約因 a vital element in the law of contracts, consideration is a benefit which must be bargained for between the parties, and is the essential reason for a party entering into a contract. Consideration must be of value (at least to the parties), and is exchanged for the performance or promise of performance by the other party (such performance itself is consideration). In a contract, one consideration (thing given) is exchanged for another consideration. Not doing an act (forbearance) can be consideration, such as "I will pay you $1,000 not to build a road next to my fence." Sometimes consideration is "nominal," meaning it is stated for form only, such as "$10 as consideration for conveyance of title," which is used to hide the true amount being paid. Contracts may become unenforceable or rescindable (undone by rescission) for "failure of consideration" when the intended consideration is found to be worth less than expected, is damaged or destroyed, or performance is not made properly (as when the mechanic does not make the car run properly). Acts which are illegal or so immoral that they are against established public policy cannot serve as consideration for enforceable contracts. Examples: prostitution, gambling where outlawed, hiring someone to break a skater's knee or inducing someone to breach an agreement (talk someone into backing out of a promise).
