Market Capitalisation: Money , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 7min
Learn about Market Capitalisation with iMinds Money's insightful fast knowledge series. Market capitalisation, or simply market cap, is the total tradable value of a public company, equal to the number of shares outstanding times share price. It is therefore an indicator of public opinion on the total future value or net worth of a business. This also means market capitalisation will fluctuate over time and even within the space of a day. Short-term changes, though, are more dependent upon share prices as the number of shares outstanding tends to be more stable with time.The market cap is a measure of equity; that is, the ownership of a business. It is not, however, the only or necessarily even the most accurate measure. The equity value of a company adds unexercised stock options and convertible notes to market capitalisation. In contrast, Enterprise value also includes debt, cash and other interests held by the business, which may provide a more accurate measure of a company’s value. Furthermore, though market values are typically considered the most accurate, there are also some issues with this measure. Shares that are traded at low volumes may be undervalued as fears of a lack of liquidity could result in lower demand and hence lower share prices. iMinds will hone your financial knowledge with its insightful series looking at topics related to Money, Investment and Finance.. whether an amateur or specialist in the field, iMinds targeted fast knowledge series will whet your mental appetite and broaden your mind. iMinds will hone your financial knowledge with its insightful series looking at topics related to Money, Investment and Finance.. whether an amateur or specialist in the field, iMinds targeted fast knowledge series will whet your mental appetite and broaden your mind.iMinds unique fast-learning modules as seen in the Financial Times, Wired, Vogue, Robb Report, Sky News, LA Times, Mashable and man ungekürzt.

Junk Bonds: Money , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 6min
Learn about Junk Bonds with iMinds Money's insightful fast knowledge series. Junk bonds are bonds with a potential for high returns but which also come with many risks. A junk bond is like an IOU from an organisation that states the amount it will pay you back, the date it will pay you back and the interest it will pay you back. But what truly sets junk bonds apart from similar investments is the credit quality of their issuers. Whereas lenders of investment-grade bonds are financially reliable, a lender of junk bonds does not have a stable financial past. When one says that junk bonds are high risk, what is meant is that if you purchase a junk bond there is a chance you will never get your money back. This is because the finances of the issuer are regarded as so insecure that there is serious doubt as to whether it can pay the interest and redemption payments. And to add to the risks, many junk bond funds do not allow investors to cash out for one to two years. Therefore, investing in junk bonds requires a lot of analytical skills, including knowledge of specialised credit. iMinds will hone your financial knowledge with its insightful series looking at topics related to Money, Investment and Finance.. whether an amateur or specialist in the field, iMinds targeted fast knowledge series will whet your mental appetite and broaden your mind. iMinds will hone your financial knowledge with its insightful series looking at topics related to Money, Investment and Finance.. whether an amateur or specialist in the field, iMinds targeted fast knowledge series will whet your mental appetite and broaden your mind.iMinds unique fast-learning modules as seen in the Financial Times, Wired, Vogue, Robb Report, Sky News, LA Times, Mashable and many others... the future of general knowledge acquisition. ungekürzt.

IPOs: Money , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 7min
Learn about IPOs with iMinds Money's insightful fast knowledge series. IPOs or Initial Public Offerings are the sale of a company's equity to the public for the first time. By “going public”, a private company can be invested in by anyone on a stock exchange. Companies commonly “go public to” either to raise capital or to increase the company's liquidity. Previously, IPOs were limited to long established, large private firms. During the Dot Com Bubble of the 1990s however, they became a common method for raising capital by younger and smaller companies. A private company may wish to go public to raise capital for growth. This growth may involve expanding a customer based, investing in infrastructure or research or any other number activities. To fund this growth, a company can either seek private investment or list their company on the stock market. Another reason for a company to go public is to increase its liquidity. By creating a market price for shares, a company can then offer stock options to attract and retain employees. This stock can also become part of merger or acquisition deals. A company can also raise its profile by going public and enjoy some prestige from being listed on a stock exchange.iMinds will hone your financial knowledge with its insightful series looking at topics related to Money, Investment and Finance.. whether an amateur or specialist in the field, iMinds targeted fast knowledge series will whet your mental appetite and broaden your mind. iMinds will hone your financial knowledge with its insightful series looking at topics related to Money, Investment and Finance... whether an amateur or specialist in the field, iMinds targeted fast knowledge series will whet your mental appetite and broaden your mind.iMinds unique fast-learning modules as seen in the Financial Times, Wired, Vogue, Robb Report, Sky News, LA Times, Mashable and many others... the future of general knowledge acq ungekürzt.

The Idiot
A New York Times Book Review Notable Book Finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction Longlisted for the Women's Prize for Fiction "An addictive, sprawling epic; I wolfed it down." -Miranda July, author of The First Bad Man and It Chooses You "Easily the funniest book I've read this year." -GQ A portrait of the artist as a young woman. A novel about not just discovering but inventing oneself. The year is 1995, and email is new. Selin, the daughter of Turkish immigrants, arrives for her freshman year at Harvard. She signs up for classes in subjects she has never heard of, befriends her charismatic and worldly Serbian classmate, Svetlana, and, almost by accident, begins corresponding with Ivan, an older mathematics student from Hungary. Selin may have barely spoken to Ivan, but with each email they exchange, the act of writing seems to take on new and increasingly mysterious meanings. At the end of the school year, Ivan goes to Budapest for the summer, and Selin heads to the Hungarian countryside, to teach English in a program run by one of Ivan's friends. On the way, she spends two weeks visiting Paris with Svetlana. Selin's summer in Europe does not resonate with anything she has previously heard about the typical experiences of American college students, or indeed of any other kinds of people. For Selin, this is a journey further inside herself: a coming to grips with the ineffable and exhilarating confusion of first love, and with the growing consciousness that she is doomed to become a writer. With superlative emotional and intellectual sensitivity, mordant wit, and pitch-perfect style, Batuman dramatizes the uncertainty of life on the cusp of adulthood. Her prose is a rare and inimitable combination of tenderness and wisdom; its logic as natural and inscrutable as that of memory itself. The Idiot is a heroic yet self-effacing reckoning with the terror and joy of becoming a person in a world that is as intoxicating as it is disquieting. Batuman's fiction is unguarded against both life's affronts and its beauty--and has at its command the complete range of thinking and feeling which they entail.
