Additionally, it is desired to already know the basics of Pandas, the popular Python data manipulation package, but this is no requirement. If you then want to apply your new 'Python for Data Science' skills to real-world financial data, consider taking the Importing and Managing Financial Data in Python course. When a company wants to grow and undertake new projects or expand, it can issue stocks to raise capital. Note that stocks are not the same as bonds, which is when companies raise money through borrowing, either as a loan from a bank or by issuing debt. Stock trading is then the process of the cash that is paid for the stocks is converted into a share in the ownership of a company, which can be converted back to cash by selling, and this all hopefully with a profit. When you follow a fixed plan to go long or short in markets, you have a trading strategy. This way, you can get an idea of the effectiveness of your strategy, and you can use it as a starting point to optimize and improve your strategy before applying it to real markets.
When you are using Python for finance, you will often find yourself using the data manipulation package, Pandas. For now, let us focus on Pandas and using it to analyse time series data. This section will explain how you can import data, explore, and manipulate it with Pandas. Finance data check out this video by Matt Macarty that shows a workaround. Make sure to install the package first by installing the latest release version via pip with pip install pandas-datareader. Aapl = pdr. Get_data_yahoo'AAPL', start=datetime.
Finance with pandas-data reader. No worries, though, for this tutorial, the data has been loaded in for you so that you do not face any issues while learning about finance in Python with Pandas. Aapl = quandl. Lastly, if you have already been working in finance for a while, you will probably know that you most often use Excel also to manipulate your data. In such cases, you should know that you can integrate Python with Excel.

Should startup founders sell their common shares to future or current investors,and when to do that?
Go to thisweekinstartups.com and scroll down to find the Startup Basics button. Felix Dennis was crystal clear in his book How To Get Rich that giving up equity was crazy. I agree with him. If, and only if, a co-founder can strongly impact the growth and effectiveness of the business...then I might consider it. Otherwise, pay bonuses or revenue share. In the VC world, many idea creators have been taken out by venture capitalists because of the contract they signed. Eyes alight with the funding capital, the founders signed the VC agreement and ignored a clause. The clause said if certain performance figures were not met at specific times, equity defaulted to the funder. The startup did not grow as expected and the targets were not met. After a time, the VC firm owned the startup and the founders discovered themselves either ejected from the business or having become employees. An IPO is a different animal. Again I recommend the Felix Dennis book as he describes his foray into that world and how ridiculous and constraining it was.JK

What does a Securities and Exchange Commission do, and what technology services/solutions does it need to operate?
The SEC is tasked to monitor, and punish if necessary illegal acts committed by trading in securities. They are the "Watch Dog" of Wall Street. Unfortunately, there are not enough skilled employees, and funds to really do their job, so a lot of unlawful acts slip through the cracks. The SEC does enforce their regs. and will levy huge fines and other sanctions. If you have additional questions, just call me. Thank you, Paul TrachtmanPT

Where would you invest $5M cash to provide an income and get good capital growth over the next 10 years?
100+ unit Apartment Buildings. With the ever increasing mortgage lending guidelines disqualifying an estimated 80+ percent of the U.S. population, America is fast becoming a renter nation. This is why guys like Robert Kiyosaki, Grant Cardone, etc., are bullish on apartments. Ridiculous financing can be negotiated with Fannie Mae on non-recourse loans to maximize leverage and cash flow. With the right properties, cost segregation can immediately increase cash flow and ROI. 100+ unit apartment buildings can offer a great return on a collateralized investment and fantastic tax advantages. This is why our current posture is looking solely for these types of properties.VP
