Work, Money and Duality: Trading Sex as a Side Hustle - Original PDF
Work, Money and Duality: Trading Sex as a Side Hustle - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Raven Bowen خلاصه: As the labour market continues to exploit workers by offering precarious, low-paid and temporary jobs, for some duality offers much-needed flexibility and staves off poverty. Based on extensive empirical work, this book illustrates contemporary accounts of individuals taking extraordinary risks to hold jobs in both sex industries and non-sex work employment. It also opens a dialogue about how sex industries are stratified in the UK in terms of race and culture against the backdrop of Brexit. Debunking stereotypes of sex workers and challenging our stigmatisation of them, this book makes an invaluable contribution to discourses about work, society and future policy.

Trading Futures: A Theological Critique of Financialized Capitalism - Original PDF
Trading Futures: A Theological Critique of Financialized Capitalism - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Filipe Maia خلاصه: The discourse of financialized capitalism tries to create a future predictable enough to manage risk for the wealthy, to shape the future into a profit-making site that constrains and privatizes the sense of what’s possible. Here, people’s hopes and meaning-making energies are policed through the burden of debt. In Trading Futures Filipe Maia offers a theological reflection on hope and the future, calling for escape routes from the debt economy. Drawing on Marxism, continental philosophy, and Latin American liberation theology, Maia provides a critical portrayal of financialization as a death-dealing mechanism that colonizes the future in its own image. Maia elaborates a Christian eschatology of liberation that offers a subversive mode of imagining future possibilities. He shows how the Christian vocabulary of hope can offer a way to critique the hegemony of financialized capitalism, propelling us in the direction of a just future that financial discourse cannot manage or control.
Trading Power: West Germany's Rise to Global Influence, 1963–1975 - Original PDF
Trading Power: West Germany's Rise to Global Influence, 1963–1975 - Original PDF
نویسندگان: William Glenn Gray خلاصه: Trading Power traces the successes and failures of a generation of German political leaders as the Bonn Republic emerged as a substantial force in European, Atlantic, and world affairs. Over the course of the 1960s and 1970s, West Germans relinquished many trappings of hard power, most notably nuclear weapons, and learned to leverage their economic power instead. Obsessed with stability and growth, Bonn governments battled inflation in ways that enhanced the international position of the Deutsche Mark while upending the international monetary system. Germany's remarkable export achievements exerted a strong hold on the Soviet bloc, forming the basis for a new Ostpolitik under Willy Brandt. Through much trial and error, the Federal Republic learned how to find a balance among key Western allies, and in the mid-1970s Helmut Schmidt ensured Germany's centrality to institutions such as the European Council and the G-7 – the newly emergent leadership structures of the West.

Quantitative Finance With Python: A Practical Guide to Investment Management, Trading, and Financial Engineering - Original PDF
Quantitative Finance With Python: A Practical Guide to Investment Management, Trading, and Financial Engineering - Original PDF
نویسندگان: C. Kelliher خلاصه: In March 2018, the Federal Reserve (“Fed”) was in the midst of its first hiking cycle in over a decade, and the European Central Bank (“ECB”), still reeling from the Eurozone debt crisis, continued to charge investors for the privilege of borrowing money. US sovereign bonds (“Treasuries”) were yielding 3% over their German coun- terparts (“Bunds”), an all-time high, and unconventional monetary policy from the two central banks had pushed the cost of protection to an all-time low. Meanwhile, across the pond, a sophisticated Canadian pension flipped a rather esoteric coin: A so-called digital put-on Euro/Dollar, a currency pair that trades over a trillion dollars a day. On this crisp winter morning, the EURUSD exchange rate (“spot”) was 1.2500. If the flip resulted in heads and spot ended below 1.2500 in 2 years, the pension would receive $10 million. If the flip were tails and spot ended above 1.2500, the pension would have to pay $2.5 million. Naturally, the 4 to 1 asymmetry in the payout suggests that the odds of heads were only 25%. Interestingly, the flip yielded heads, and in 2 years, spot was below 1.2500
Trading Freedom: How Trade with China Defined Early America - Original PDF
Trading Freedom: How Trade with China Defined Early America - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Dael A. Norwood خلاصه: Trading Freedom explores the surprisingly rich early history of US-China trade and its unexpected impact on the developing republic. The economic and geographic development of the early United States is usually thought of in trans-Atlantic terms, defined by entanglements with Europe and Africa. In Trading Freedom, Dael A. Norwood recasts these common conceptions by looking to Asia, making clear that from its earliest days, the United States has been closely intertwined with China—monetarily, politically, and psychologically. Norwood details US trade with China from the late eighteenth through the late nineteenth centuries—a critical period in America’s self-definition as a capitalist nation—and shows how global commerce was central to the articulation of that national identity. Trading Freedom illuminates how debates over political economy and trade policy, the building of the transcontinental railroad, and the looming sectional struggle over slavery were all influenced by Sino-American relations. Deftly weaving together interdisciplinary threads from the worlds of commerce, foreign policy, and immigration, Trading Freedom thoroughly dismantles the idea that American engagement with China is anything new.
From Data to Trade: A Machine Learning Approach to Quantitative Trading - Original PDF
From Data to Trade: A Machine Learning Approach to Quantitative Trading - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Gautier Marti خلاصه: Machine Learning has revolutionized the field of quantitative trading, enabling traders to develop and implement sophisticated trading strategies that leverage large amounts of data and advanced modeling techniques. In this book, we provide a comprehensive overview of Machine Learning for quantitative trading, covering the fundamental concepts, techniques, and applications of Machine Learning in the financial industry. We start by introducing the key concepts and challenges of Machine Learning for quantitative trading, including feature engineering, model selection, and backtesting. We then delve into the various Machine Learning approaches that are commonly used in quantitative trading, including supervised learning, unsupervised learning, and reinforcement learning. We also discuss the challenges and best practices of implementing Machine Learning models in the live market, including the role of data quality, the importance of risk management, and the need for ongoing model monitoring and validation. Throughout the book, we provide numerous examples and case studies to illustrate the concepts and techniques discussed, and we also include practical tips and resources to help traders and practitioners get started with Machine Learning for quantitative trading. This book is an essential resource for anyone looking to gain a deeper understanding of how Machine Learning is transforming the world of finance. This groundbreaking work offers a unique perspective on the use of Machine Learning in the financial markets, as it was created by an advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI) using its own Machine Learning algorithms to analyze vast amounts of data and construct a comprehensive guide on the subject. Machine Learning is a type of artificial intelligence that enables computers to learn and adapt without being explicitly programmed. It involves the use of algorithms and statistical models to analyze data and make predictions or decisions based on the patterns and trends that it identifies. In Machine Learning, a computer is trained to recognize patterns in data by being presented with a large number of examples of the patterns that it should recognize. As the computer processes these examples, it "learns" the characteristics of the patterns and becomes better at recognizing them. Once the computer has learned to recognize the patterns, it can then be used to make predictions or decisions based on new data that it has not seen before. There are many different types of machine learning, including supervised learning, unsupervised learning, semi-supervised learning, and reinforcement learning. Each type of Machine Learning involves a different approach to training the computer and making predictions or decisions based on the data. Machine Learning is used in a wide range of applications, including image and speech recognition, natural language processing (NLP), recommendation systems, and fraud detection. It has the potential to transform many different industries by automating tasks that would be difficult or impossible for humans to perform, and by enabling computers to make decisions and predictions based on data in a way that is more accurate and efficient than human judgment. In “From Data to Trade: A Quantitative Approach to Machine Learning,” readers will learn about the latest techniques and approaches for using Machine Learning in quantitative trading, as well as practical advice for implementing these methods in their own trading strategies. From basic concepts to advanced techniques, this book covers it all and is an invaluable resource for traders at any level of experience.
