Is it possible to edit threads? If yes, how?

Hi Ken, I am a senior undergrad student studying financial econometrics and have a similar question to asidd.
I took your lecture on a VaR model through online that you gave at MIT. I would like to study further with using excel file that you discussed in the lecture.
I checked the name of that file and it was MC stuff 2010.xls. Is there any chance that I can get that excel file from you?

Thanks.

Hi Ken, watched your lecture on VaR Models that you gave at MIT and found it informative and useful. Had two questions:

1. At the systemic level, If we are to posit that risk can be transferred but cannot be eliminated then would that be a correct statement?
2. Would you still have the excel file that you discussed in the VaR model lecture at MIT.

Thanks.

Hi Andy!
Would you mind reading the message in the conversation I started with you? Really appreciate your reply.

Hi Prof. Abbott, I am considering the job offer to be Market Risk Quantitative Internal Auditor. Like to seek for your opinion whether I can gain experience and switch to Market risk, Model validation, or any Quant hands on work etc. in future or not? or it is better to go directly to those positions.

Hey! Any help on how to run the ISDA CDS model please.

Hi Prof. Abbott.
I have a question about your MIT VaR class.
As we know, a symmetric matrix (like covaraince matrix) could be decomposed into EAE^-1 (where E contains all eigenvectors, A contains all eigenvalues, E^-1 equals matrix E inverse), but you have used another decomposition EAE' (where E' equals E transpose). I don't know how to prove EAE' decomposition. Could you help me about that?
Best, Zongyuan
