Market Efficiency Extended Essay In this extended essay I will address a number of key issues in relation to market efficiency. I will define market efficiency and describe the three different forms of market efficiency which consist of; weak-form efficiency‚ semi-strong form and strong-form efficiency. I will also outline the characteristics of market efficiency. I will then define what a mutual fund is and compare and contrast an open-ended

MARKET EFFICIENCY. Introduction. What is an "efficient" market? Can you say that the stock market in Zimbabwe is efficient?. Definitely our stock market is very small relative to others. For example‚ the ZSE carries only 75 counters‚ whereas the Johannesberg Stock Exchange (JSE) has more than five thousand firms‚ yet by world standards‚ even the JSE is still regarded as an "emerging market". So you can see that there are very few players on our ZSE‚ thus very little competition among the investors

THERMAL INSULATION MATERIALS Thermal insulation materials are specifically designed to reduce the heat flow by limiting heat conduction‚ convection‚ radiation or all three while performing one or more of the following functions: The main function of insulation is to reduce the heat transfer‚ the insulation material must have the appropriate characteristic to slow down the transport of heat occurred by conduction‚ convection and radiation. Conduction loss in insulation is negligible. There are

(a) Explain how allocative efficiency is related to the concepts of consumer surplus and producer surplus. Consumer surplus is defined as the highest price consumers are willing to pay for a good minus the price actually paid. As shown in the diagram‚ P1 is the highest price consumers are willing to pay for a good. Pe is the equilibrium price determined by the market. Any consumers are willing to pay price higher than Pe will end up paying Pe. This means they pay less than they expect‚ therefore

change. Solar thermal (heat) energy is a carbon-free‚ renewable alternative to the power we generate with fossil fuels like coal and gas. This isn’t a thing of the future‚ either. Between 1984 and 1991‚ the United States built nine such plants in California’s Mojave Desert‚ and today they continue to provide a combined capacity of 354 megawatts annually‚ power used in 500‚000 Californian homes [source: Hutchinson]. Reliable power‚ at that. In 2008 when six days of peak demand buckled the power grid and

apparent that the Fukishima Daiichi nuclear power plant meltdown had a disastrous effect on Japan as a whole. On March 11‚ 2011‚ a 9.0 magnitude earthquake hit the coast‚ just off of Japans borders‚ the earthquake its self‚ moved the earth off of its axis. The massive 5 minute long earthquake moved the earth’s tectonic plates‚ which then triggered a 15 meter high tsunami‚ less than an hour later. There was a 5.6 meter high defence wall‚ bordering the power plant‚ which sank about a meter during the

Linear Thermal Expansion The term thermal expansion refers to the increase in size of an object as that object is heated. With relatively few exceptions‚ all objects expand when they are heated and contract when they are cooled. Perhaps the most important exception to this rule is water. Water contracts as it cools from its boiling point to about 39.2°F (4°C). At that point‚ it begins to expand as it cools further to its freezing point. This unusual effect explains the fact that ice is less dense
