forget about blue book examples, will review those also. not to mention watch a bit of the nba finals!
+1 American Airlines has a winner with two venues in the finals. I may bring my note cards to the American Airlines Center for some big screen watching. The rest of the week will be dedicated to GIPS and note cards. Maybe some EOC and blue book examples as well.

I got reading #47 1,2,5 correct first try. I think I have reached my peak.
Be careful to do the PMT signs correct in calculator. For Bonds PMT sign same as FV sign For TDA payments ( e.g. 2010 AM exam ) PMT same sign as PV sign Got burned by that one.
isn’t it just that if you put money in, it’s negative, whereas if you take it out, IE receive bond coupon, its positive?
thats how i look at it - initial PV, negative, and any contributions in the future, negative. Any FV, or returns the portfolio gives me, + in the calculator.
