July 9th, 2020 APA (edition "APA 6"), Business and Management Comments Off on Buffett alpha analysis Buffett alpha analysis
Question #1
Annual alpha from a 1-factor market model; Annual alpha from a Fama-French 3-factor model with SMB and HML; Annual alpha from a 5-factor model consisting of the FF 3-factor model augmented with BAB and QMJ.
What do all these alphas mean?
How about factor loadings? You have heard Warren Buffett is a value investor. Do you see that in the factor loadings? If he invests in value stocks, which factor should load high? Conversely, because is a value investor, he is probably avoiding some group of stocks. What factor loadings suggest that?
etc.
Question #2
Here, all you are doing is trying to understand if his performance changed over time. Do you see him doing better or worse over time? How about his factor loadings or betas? Did they change in a systematic way? That is, is he buying more and more value stocks or is he shying away from value stocks and buying stocks with other characteristics such as small stocks or low volatility stocks?
etc.

HIS 320 Quiz
THIS NEEDS TO BE DONE IN 2HRS MAX!!
The quiz will cover the readings for this week from “The City That Became Safe” and “An Uneasy Peace”
Again, the best responses will:
A) Use relevant and clear evidence in the form of direct quotations from the readings
B) Integrate those quotations using methods three and four from HW1 (so it makes sense to review how to do so; see HW 1 reading if you have not yet mastered that skill)
C) Reduce those quotation to 11 or fewer words (so it makes sense to review how to do so; see here if you don’t know how to do so: https://lpsessaywriting.wordpress.com/quotations/cuttingchanging-quotes/)
D) employ argument structures that follow cl/ev/wa (again, the HW1 reading carefully details how to improve your argumentative approach through cl/ev/wa)
E) NO OUTSIDE SOURCES PERMITTED
QUESTIONS:
religion
I have to respond to someone else’s response to these questions:
1) In the United States today, which have the greater voice and the greater impact, Conservative or Liberal Christians?
2) What new insight did you get from the material on the Book of Revelation?
3) What is the best insight about Christianity that you got from this class?
Their responses:
1) I think that both Conservative and Liberal Christians have equal power of voice and impact but in different ways. Conservative Christians are known for being very traditional. Their beliefs and views are held close to them and they are able to spread their traditional values through their offsprings. They share their beliefs to the public of what God tells them is right and wrong, and it can have an influence on the government (e.g whether abortions should be legal or not). Liberal Christians, however, don’t follow the traditional values of a Conservative Christian. But they still follow the word of God, in that he has given them free will to make their own choices in life. like God, they are more towards the side of accepting people and letting them choose the type of life they want to live without any judgment.
2. I really liked how it was referred to as the “apocalypse” of John. But the word “apocalypse” is actually used in a positive term, where John is going to reveal something extraordinary to the readers. When you first think of the words apocalypse, you normally think that something is going to happen.
3. The best insight of Christianity that I got from this class was hearing different people’s perspectives about their beliefs in Christianity, and the controversy between different topics. It was interesting to know that many people view God in a different way. For example, some view him as a puppeteer, while others view him as a punisher.

Topic: Differential Diagnosis
A 29-year-old single, sexually active woman reporting that she is in a monogamous relationship, has experienced five attacks of acute cystitis in the past year, all characterized by dysuria, increased frequency, and urgency. Each case was diagnosed on the basis of the clinical picture and a laboratory finding of bacteriuria. The urine bacterial counts in these cases ranged from 104 to 106 organisms/ml. Lab tests indicated that the third and fourth infections were caused by Escherichia coli, while the fifth infection was caused by an enterococcus and the second infection was caused by Proteus mirabilis. Each infection responded to short-term treatment with trimethoprim sulfamethoxazole. The recurrences occurred at intervals of 3 weeks to 3 months following completion of antibiotic therapy. For the past two days, the woman has once again been experiencing dysuria, increased frequency, and urgency, so she goes to see her nurse practitioner provider. Her vital signs are T = 37.6C, P = 100, R = 18, and BP = 110/75 mm Hg. Physical examination reveals a mild tenderness to palpation in the suprapubic area, but no other abnormalities. A bimanual pelvic examination reveals a normal-sized uterus and adnexae with no apparent adnexal tenderness. No vaginal discharge is noted. The cervix appears normal.
Questions:
What is the differential diagnosis for this set of symptoms? What is your preliminary diagnosis?
What tests should you order to confirm your preliminary diagnosis?
What are the possible causes of recurrent lower UTIs? Which of these is most likely in this case?
When would you collaborate with other professionals and refer your patient to a specialist and why?
