This is a programming book written by a finance professor. This book will be an ideal textbook for many quantitative finance courses, such as (next generation) financial modeling, portfolio theory, empirical research in finance, computational finance, and risk management. The book has three unique characteristics: (1) use free software; (2) combine programming with various finance theories, such as ratio analysis, CAPM, Fama-French 5-factor model, portfolio theory, options and futures, credit analysis, VaR (Value at Risk), and Monte Carlo Simulation; and (3) download and process publicly available financial and economic data from various sources, such as Yahoo! Finance, Google Finance, FRED (Federal Reserve Bank's Economic Data Library), SEC, and Prof. French's Data Library
This document is the Online Appendix to "Quality of PIN Estimates and the PIN-Return Relationship" by Yuxing Yan and Shaojun Zhang in Journal of Banking and Finance 43 (2014), pp 137-149. It includes two tables and four figures. The first table compares the two sets of quarterly PIN estimates that we obtain by using two methods to classify buyer-initiated and seller-initiated trades. One is the Lee and Ready (1991) algorithm with 5-second adjustment for delay in reported trade time. The other is the Ellis, Michaely and O'Hara (2000) algorithm without time adjustment. The second table compares the two sets of PIN estimates for actively and inactively traded stocks, separately. We divide stock...

MSF stands for the Master of Science in Finance. In this paper, we propose a new scheme for the next-generation MSF programs. Here, the term of MSF is used to represent many similar programs, such as Master Degree of Financial Engineering, Quantitative Finance, Risk Management, Computational Finance and the like. Our approach could be summarized by three features: 1) replace C with Python or R plus SAS, 2) focus on data analytics, especially on financial data analytics, and 3) borrow a few courses from Business Analytics programs. In a sense, the new design could be viewed as the inter-join between the current MSF programs and Business Analytics programs. Alternatively, just remember three words: finance, programming and data.
