Valuation Class: Home Page For the first two decades that I taught it, this class was called "Equity Instruments and Markets", a title that never fit. This class has never been about instruments, nor was it about markets and I am not even sure that it was about equity . It was a valuation class, plain and simple, and I am glad that it has acquired that title. I hope you enjoy it, and find it useful, in that order. Everything you need for this class should be linked to this page. If you do want to get back to my home page, click on the logo at the top of the page.

DoughHound Meaning of Halflife I'd like to illustrate what this really means. If living creatures had halflives the way radioactive atoms do, the world would be a very different place. What do you mean? Suppose there's an alien species with a halflife of, say, 70 years. That doesn't sound so weird. True...but remember that the halflife is always the same, regardless of how old the aliens are. That is kind of strange. It gets stranger. Methuselah isn't going to make it, though. Methuselah has just as much chance of surviving the next 70 years as any one of the 15 babies.

One morning panel was moderated by Ryan Carson and featured Brad Feld, the Managing Director at the Foundry Group, Hans Hwang, VP Advanced Services, Cisco, and myself. During the course of our discussion, Ryan brought up a set of interesting questions: Should enterprises embrace blogging?What is the impact of Google Docs on the enterprises?Do corporations need social networks? The discussion eventually brought us to an even broader question: Why should enterprises go social, and what are the compelling reasons for adoption?
