2. Noise trader risk Noise trader risk refers to the risk that the mispricing worsens in the short run because there is possibility that pessimistic traders become even more pessimistic about the future. Once a position is taken, noise traders may drive prices farther from fundamental value, and the arbitrageur may be forced to invest additional capital, which may not be available, forcing an early liquidation of the position. 3. Information gap and financing issues Generally, the arbitrageurs…

The main argument against the dog park plan is that: "Noise from barking dogs and yelling owners will disturb nearby residents." (No Dog Park for Muscatine, paragraph 3, line 2.) This is silly because in Muscatine, noise complaints are only taken after 10:00 in the evening, while the dog park would close at sundown. If the residents of Muscatine are fine with human noise until that late, then why would they care about some noise from the dog park during the day? One reason that a dog…

American Noise The song American noise is a song by the Christian band known as Skillet. This song to me is an anthem for the young generation of our society who feel like outcasts. Most hard rock groups of this present age concentrate on what they feel is wrong with society, but not really doing anything about it. The only element it lacks is to empower the listener that they have a voice. That is what this song does for me it gives me hope that tomorrow is going to come and be better than…

fond of the center of things. The havoc, the confusion, the noise--it’s overwhelming and sanity-testing. The others can chatter, they can make the din and clatter. I’m perfectly fine with being a listener. It’s actually not that bad, you know, viewing the world from this vantage point I have inserted myself into, where I’m not noticed or bothered. By standing apart, I can see the whole picture. I can make sense of the senseless noise, hone in on the important fragments scattered about the…

Pollution is the most common factor that has caused our oceans to take a drastic turn for the worse. One of the highest overlooked types of pollution within the waters come from noise and transportation. In fact, sound waves travel farther and faster in the sea than in air and “many marine mammals like whales and dolphins, in addition to fish and other sea creatures, rely on communication by sound to find food, mate, and navigate” (Denchak). Human-caused sound waves disturb the marine animals’…

Noises Off is a film of a play within another play. Noises off is a film adaptation of a farce, which is a play where doors constantly open and shut. Peter Bogdanovich directed the film, while Marty Kaplan wrote the screenplay and Michael Frayn wrote the play. Lloyd Fellowes is the director in charge of putting this production together in the film. Fellowes struggles to maintain control over his electric and at times unstable cast. Things appear to run somewhat smoothly during practice…

For our last play reflection we watched Noises Off by Michael Frayn. It was first performed in 1982, but the idea for this show came to him 1970, while he was watching a play called The Two of Us. It was a continuation of the one-act play he wrote called Exits, I found this quite interesting. The movie was directed by Peter Bogdanovich, which of course got some mixed reviews, I for one found it quite hard to follow, or to even write down key plot notes. It was humor at times, but there was just…
