These datasets are for my book, Global Financial Markets, Stock Markets and Currency Unions,
American, Asian-Pacific, and European and Currency Union Convergence and Capital Market Integration, With Review of Foreign Corporate Involvement in the Americas. This experiment was presented to FAU in December 2008, the rough draft was finished April 2010, and revised in 2025. My favourite parts are the Government Listing Guide, and the LFCountry sheets which display the foreign companies.
I spent about 100k on this book. Some partying in my youth, the clubs are for young people, some expensive furniture at FAU, and some stock market gambling. I am proud of this book, and I hope to pay off my debts one day, but as you should be I am satisfied with the outcome. If you are going to party, have something to show for it, like work or school.
My research skills developed before my class skills. At UNC, I had a rough first semester, kicked out of the dorm, and I failed English because I did not cite references, and my father wrote a 20 page report for a seminar. Would I have performed better, including in Calculus and Java, had I not been removed from the dorms in September 2021? I had a 2.8 GPA at UNC, and a 3.2 GPA at UNF, but at UNF I wrote a dissertation proposal on monetary policy, and then continued excellent research at FAU, where I wrote several papers, and failed Statistics.
You need better study habits for engineering than business classes.
