Web Casts

As technology and my own grasp of its powers improve, I have also started putting more of my material into webcasts. All of the listed webcasts are mine, though a couple are hosted by outside servers. You should not need a password or userid for the class or subject websasts.

MBA &Executive Classes
Starting in the fall of 2001, my corporate finance and equity classes have been web cast. You can track the current semester's classes and use the presentations that go with the class. If the current semester is ongoing, the previous semester's classes are also archived. If you are trying to take this class online, you will probably have better luck accessing the archived semester's classes (rather than the current one).

Financial Management (Corporate Finance for undergraduates) (Links were finally removed, but watch the sessions for the Corporate Finance class instead. It is the same class)

The webcasts of a shorter executive ( two-day) MBA valuation seminar and a three-day corporate finance seminar can also be downloaded. The formet covered primarily DCF valuation and is available in 4 3-hour sessions and the latter is a condensed version of my regular corporate finance class and is composed of six 3-hour sessions.

Session on teaching

Every year, I do a session on the art and craft of teaching. Since teaching is one of my passions, I enjoy talking about it and what I have learned about it over the last three decades.

Subject Matter Webcasts/ Podcasts
The following are short podcasts (webcasts), ranging from 20-40 minutes to length that cover multiple topics in valuation. Note that this is a work in progress and the links will show up as the webcasts go online, at the rate of about one a week.

AIMR Presentations

For the last few years, I have done an annual webcast for AIMR. While you have to visit the AIMR site to see these webcasts, the material for the webcasts can be downloaded here:

  1. Valuing companies with negative eanings, no history and no comparables: Amazon in early 2000
  2. The Effect of Information on Value: An update on the Amazon valuation: January 2001
  3. Dealing with Distress in Valuation: Global Crossing in 2002
  4. Loose Ends in Valuation

Webcasts of outside sessions

There are webcasts that I have done over time for different units that are online. I don't control any of these videos but you can access them by going to the sites

Relative Valuation: FMA (from 2004 meetings)

YouTube
Snippets of my presentations and lectures are now on Youtube. Given how dynamic that space is, I will not try to direct you to specific stops. Needless to say, if you do do find a YouTube piece that has me saying or doing anything that is not my forte (such as playing the Phantom of the Opera),skip over it very quickly. We all have our competitive advantages, and singing is not one of mine.
