Submission 3

Instructions:
You are allowed and encouraged to discuss the subject matter amongst yourselves. Each group submits only one writeup. Writeup for each group should be their original work.
Submissions will be electronic on canvas. You may use excel, word, power-point or combinations of all. There are no limits or constraints on single or double spacing or font sizes or number of pages for your submission. The write up should address the questions in a clear manner in a way that the reader understands your presentation.

1. Consider buying December S&P e-mini futures. The condition is that moving average crossover should signal a buy. Use 10 days for fast moving average and 20 days for slow moving averages. Once bought, create a stoploss exit strategy. Use a profit taking price of 30 ticks above the buying price. The stop loss price should be calculated using the stop loss model we built in class with a probability of 0.55 for an up move of one tick. Submit your ADL diagram.

2. Consider selling December S&P e-mini futures. The condition is that the Bollinger bands (2 standard deviation) should signal a sell and that the RSI should signal a sell (overbought RSI above 80). Once sold create a buy back exit strategy. The buy back should be triggered when the stock price is in the middle of the Bollinger band. Then create a loop so that this algo is repeated indefinitely. Submit your ADL diagram.

4. A pension fund has the following liability schedule: Also the following bonds are available: Assume that the excess funds can be invested in a vehicle earning 2% every year. Find the least cost portfolio of bonds to purchase today to meet the obligations of the company over the next 4 years.
5. You have $1,000 to invest. The following four investment vehicles are available.
Investment 1: Every dollar invested now yields $0.20 a year
from now, and $1.20 three years from now.

Investment 3: Every dollar invested one year from now yields
$1.10 three years from now.

Investment 4: Every dollar invested two years from now
yields $1.10 three years from now.

Year 1

During each year leftover cash yields 5% annually. The most in each investment should be $400 How should you invest to maximize the cash three years from now? (See pension funds video).

So for example, 1 Euro = 1.145 USD. And hence 1 USD = 1/1.145 EUR. Use network theory and determine if there is arbitrage opportunity in the currency market.

Would you agree? What about Maslow’s description of humanness in terms of a hierarchy of needs with self-actualization at the top? Another possibility is that persons are the major focus of nursing. Do you see humans as good or evil?

  • (2) the capacity to interact with others,
  • (3) the need for boundaries, and
  • (4) the use of language (Doheny, Cook, & Stopper, 1997).

3. Where do you see yourself and your understanding of truth on the continuum of realism and idealism?

4. What are your beliefs about the major concepts in nursing—person, environment, health, nursing?

7. How does my personal philosophy fit with the context of nursing? Does it fit? What areas, if any, need assessing?

Which empire would you model the daily life in your society from? Would you rather people live like they did under the Roman empire? Or would you want your people to live like Egyptians farming along the banks of the Nile?

Powerpoint of an unique empire that incorporates characteristics from civilizations

In the first two units of this course, you have learned about several historical civilizations and the way that they lived such as the Roman Empire, the Greek city states, the Persians, Babylonians, Sumerians, Egyptians, Empire of Aksum, Olmecs, Zapotecs and many more!

For this project, you will be demonstrating your understanding of these empires by creating your own new unique empire which incorporates characteristics from at least four of the civilizations that you learned about in this unit. You will then create a PowerPoint presentation which provides an overview of your new empire and what it would be like. You can choose from the following lists of characteristics to incorporate into your empire:

Be Creative!

  • Culture: Choose the culture of your empire. Remember you can choose only from one empire.
  • Art, inventions, or Architecture: Which empire will you like yours to imitate for art, inventions, or architecture?
  • Daily Life: Which empire would you model the daily life in your society from? Would you rather people live like they did under the Roman empire? Or would you want your people to live like Egyptians farming along the banks of the Nile?
  • Military: Whose powerful or weak military techniques do you want to imitate for your own?
  • Economics: What type of economy do you want to model yours after? One that is rich in trade like the Greeks or Phoenicians?
  • Law and Code: What empire should your laws or codes follow? Do you prefer more of a separation of government like the Roman Empire or you want absolute rule?
  • Leadership abilities: Whose leadership qualities do you want to imitate? Would it be Alexander’s ability to unite several groups under one empire, or Darius’ system of organizing satraps to govern different regions?
  • Religion: You have a few choices here between Christianity, Judaism, Jainism, Hinduism, Buddhism, and the Greek, Roman and Egyptian traditional religions. You should have knowledge of each by now, so which one will you adopt for your own DIY empire?
  • In total, you need to describe six different characteristics that you would borrow from at least four different historical civilizations and incorporate into your own.
