Emerging Markets

Last night I had the first session of my Emerging Markets class. Taught by Martin J. Siegel, formerly of LTCM, it promises to be a very real and interesting class.

Martin's an old salt, from the rag trade to being a forex arbitrageur to investing in emerging markets. This class is shaping up to be a series of war stories punctuated with real advice. It's interesting - he's interesting.

I also have to say that this continues my experience that upper-level courses are taught with more nerve and personality.
