Discussion: Scholars vs. Practitioners

For your discussion, find two videos: one by a leading practitioner of finance, and one by a leading scholar. Examples of prestigious practitioners include legendary investors Warren Buffett and Peter Lynch. Some of top scholars of finance include William Sharpe, the original developer of the CAPM. The late Stephen Ross is the author of some of the readings for this class and is the developer of the concept of the arbitrage pricing theory. Other well-known finance scholars include Myron Scholes, Fisher Black, and Eugene Fama. You can also try to find videos from some of the authors of the articles that you are reviewing for your Case and SLP.
Post the link to both the practitioner’s video and the scholar’s video. Include a brief discussion of each video, and compare and contrast the content and style of each video. What do you see as the major differences between content and style of each video? Is it similar to the differences you found between practitioner and scholarly journal articles?
