I am having hard time putting my focus on those concepts of impacts of business/consumers/fiscal/monetary etc on economy/equity/bond market.
Some of the explanation is just too unclear for me and I feel like I spend too much time trying to understand.
I am thinking I should more time in more important areas. so how important is capital market expectations?
Are others having same problems as me?

  • 23 minutes in the morning session in 2011
  • 14 minutes in the morning session in 2010
  • 19 minutes in the morning session in 2009
And whatever came in the afternoon session.
Sounds important.

Just got through the capital markets expectations EOCs the other day and I did pretty bad. I agree it is confusing material but it is important. This is one of the many topics I will have to revisit and review thoroughly before starting mocks so I can get everything down.

Pitmaster and magician, i like your wands!
I’m gonna review Alternative. It’s a good reading but too lengthy. Does Schweser cover everything from textbooks? Thanks!
 
Hi Mamamia for Alts schweser does not cover everything. e.g. it doesn’t properly cover the difference and specific features of the Direct and Indirect Real Estate indexes but this is tested in the CFAI EOC Q 3 I believe.
