Talk:Bonds: advanced topics

Many of these topics have pages on Wikipedia. What do you guys think about including "for further reading" links to those topics? E.G. [wiki duration page] has a much more involved discussion. --RobG1 19:28, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

Sounds like a good idea. There are a few other good references for duration out there (e.g. Investopedia), although surprisingly few for convexity. --Linuxizer 19:32, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

I made an initial attempt to consolidate definitions, but never got very far. Feel free to use anything from here: Duration - Definitions Refined (page renamed to Duration - math definitions --LadyGeek 12:34, 2 January 2011 (EST)) William Sharpe's site has some good math background. --LadyGeek 21:48, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

Sorry, I forgot to check "watch" so I wasn't aware that you guys were talking. LadyGeek, that page looks good but it seems like a lot of work compared to what I was thinking. I was just suggesting adding links to wikipedia on subjects that they have entries on. Our pages provide a good summary suitable for most investors, but the wikipedia entries go into more depth. I suppose the investopedia also does but I haven't looked at that. I'll put the links and to show you what I mean.
