MARKET SIGNALS; What The Financial Markets Are Telling Us Now
“If the majority of people were right, the majority of the people would be rich… and they’re not!” Following the herd has rarely produced superior long-term results. Tulane University’s Peter Ricchiuti will share his informative and entertaining perspective on financial markets, the importance of proper diversification and the cyclical nature of both stocks and investment sectors. He will also talk about the Burkenroad Reports, a securities research program he created at Tulane.

Tulane University has become more “green" and students increasingly choose green projects to perform required community service. Planting even one tree helps lessen our community’s carbon footprint.
