Upcoming DeGroote Seminar Series lectures

Speaker:	Benson Honig, Professor, Human Resources & Management and Teresa Cascioli Chair in Entrepreneurial Leadership
Location:	The Ron Joyce Centre 4350 South Service Road Burlington, ON L7L 5R8

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 2013 “Finance@DeGroote” seminar

Are we in a bull or bear market? Where is the market heading in the future?These are important questions that are the basis of many financial decisions. In this seminar, Dr. Maheu will begin a discussion on some of the traditional approaches to identify bull and bear markets. These approaches are useful for dating of historical bull and bear runs but cannot be used to forecast future market trends. The current state of the art econometric models allow for identification and forecasting of bull and bear markets. Advantages of this approach will be discussed and how they can be used for investment decisions.

Topic:	Identifying and Forecasting Bull and Bear Markets in Stock Returns
Speaker:	John Maheu, Professor, Finance and Business Economics Chaired by Dr. Sherry Cooper, TMX Group Industry Professor
Location:	The National Club 303 Bay Toronto, ON M5H 2R1
Time:	5 p.m. reception, followed by seminar

There is no charge to attend this event; however your registration
is kindly requested.
