For example, if someone works for a company that is planning on releasing a new product which will cause their stocks to skyrocket they could go and tell someone to invest in that company because they have insider information that gives them the information of knowing that investing in this companies stocks at a specific time will lead to a lot of money earned. “Obviously, the reason insider trading is illegal is because it gives the insider an unfair advantage in the market, puts the interests of the insider above those to whom he or she owes a fiduciary duty, and allows an insider to artificially influence the value of a company’s stocks” (HG Legal Sources 2020). Overall, I definitely think that insider trading should be illegal because of the unfair advantage that it gives people who are aware of this insider information. For the most part financial markets are efficient; however, they do tend to have some flaws that don’t always make them completely efficient. “The efficient market hypothesis (EMH) maintains that all stocks are perfectly priced according to their inherent investment properties, the knowledge of which all market participants possess equally” (Dhir 2019). Investors value stocks differently, so it is nearly impossible to determine what a stock should be worth under an efficient market, which is an argument against the EMH. Also, no single investor can attain greater profitability than another investor with the same amount of invested funds under the EMH. Overall, there really is no such thing for financial markets to have perfect efficiency, but they can still be efficient.

Dhir, Rajeev. “Is the Stock Market Efficient?” Investopedia, Investopedia, 17 May 2020, www.investopedia.com/articles/basics/04/022004.asp. student #2 YesterdayJul 1 at 5:43pm What is your opinion on the insider trading debate? In other words, should insider trading be illegal or legal? Offer your view on this statement based on your readings, life experiences, and ethics. Andrew Sebastian (2018) refers to insider trading as the purchase or sale of securities by someone with information that is material and not in the public realm and it can be done by not only company management, directors, and employees but also by outside investors, brokers, and fund managers (para. 1). While there is great debate on whether insider trading should be legal or illegal, I personally think it should remain illegal. My number one reason for this is that is an unethical practice. The people who benefit from utilizing insider information have a greater advantage than those who have invested stock and money but are still left in the dark. When trading, it should be equal, honest, and fair for all involved parties. Furthermore, Sebastian (2018) explains that insider trading “robs the investors who do not have non-public information of receiving the full value for their securities [and] if a select few people trade on material nonpublic information, the integrity of the markets will be damaged and investors will be discouraged from partaking in them” (para. 3-4). Do you think financial markets, such as the stock market, are efficient? Offer your view on this statement based on your readings and/or real-life experiences. I do not think financial markets, such as the stock market, are efficient, however, they are not 100 percent inefficient. “Market efficiency… suggests that the price of a security reflects all the information available about that security” (“Market Efficiency and Its Three Forms”, 2012, para. 2). Therefore, if the market were actually efficient, investors would not have access to any privileged and/or special information that they can use to their advantage to earn an extra profit; but unfortunately, that is not the case for financial markets, like the stock market. Then, to further confirm the inefficiency of certain financial markets, Adam Hayes (2020) explains that in inefficient markets, while some investors can make excess returns, “others can lose more than expected, given their level of risk exposure. If the market were entirely efficient, these opportunities and threats would not exist for any reasonable length of time since market prices would quickly move to match a security’s true value as it changed” (para. 9).

The task of a mechanical engineer is to develop and to incorporate cost-efficient improvements in equipment to improve safety, reliability and efficiency. They collaborate with colleagues in the production, testing and assessment of technical designs that tackle complex problems within projects and solve them. In my early childhood years my father gifted me a laptop and as I took that laptop into my hand’s questions began pouring out of my mind that how this machine was designed, constructed and how it worked. Since then I’ve become very intrigued by the mechanics behind the devices. This aspiration was intensified when I discovered the internet. As a vast amount of knowledge came to my grasp, I started studying the mechanics of different machines and read several articles as well as magazines like ‘science daily’ and ‘engineering.com’. I have also acquired as many skills as possible that I can gain myself in software like ‘Mat Lab’ and ‘Unity” and done projects such as creating facial recognition software as well as creating theoretical designs for a fully automated and environment friendly home.Each taste of life provides every person with new knowledge and therefore experience is our way of developing, our way of learning and our way of living in this changing world. Thus I have a two and half year internship at my father garment manufacturing company, the most important opportunity that makes me recognize and follow my career direction. I work as an assistant manager. During my first year of internship my duties were to respond to any complaints or comments against the orders. Throughout this time, I had to use critical thinking in every phase to respond to the customers, as I had to have logic and rationale behind our goods, and I also had to provide them with alternative solutions. I needed to develop mutual trust with my colleagues to keep me successful and one of the ways to boost moral values when raising trust is to have team-building exercise. Often I eat and share my thoughts with them during the launch break. I tried to support someone with a tight schedule in his job and got the same kindness back and forth, and in a slow pace I won their vote of confidence in myself.However most productive time of my internship was later half where I was given duty to overseas the manufacturing process this helped me learn very vital skills such as monitoring, management of personals, time management, and decision making since I had to assess, define and evaluate the success of staff and then have to inspire, improve and guide them. It was also the time that I met with the company’s engineering team and studied about the various equipment systems, how they were designed and how they could be fixed.Next came the Covid-19, and foreign trade almost collapsed. My father also suffered a great loss and amount of clothing was going to be wasted, so when I learned that I began looking of how to fix this issue, I eventually came up with the idea that these clothing should be utilized in the production of masks. As I made this recommendation to my father, he instantly assigned me the duty to track and execute this mission. It was a massive challenge and I needed to do so with the utmost commitment.We had begun this project with entire week of meeting executives, working with colleagues throughout the night to complete design and business plan. It was an exhausting operation, but all went smoothly until a big challenge occurred to us that our main cutting machine was not functioning, the mechanical head of our company was not in the town. So, I attempted to fix it myself with my junior in the department, and we were successful. Finally, within two weeks we were able to donate ten thousand masks to the local NGOs.

“Describe the circumstances that contributed to your undergraduate GPA being around or under a 3.0 (provide details). Then, describe the changes you’ve made and lessons you’ve learned to be better prepared to maintain a GPA of 3.0+ as a student in this program.” I have a 2.4 undergraduate GPA. I recently took classes post baccalaureate and I now have 3.9 GPA.  My experience with my undergraduate was difficult because I had just moved to America from Lebanon at 17 years old.  I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life so it was difficult to stay motivated and along with that, my mother was in and out of the ICU with only myself around to care for her. Now that I know what I want to do with my life, with proof of my recent grades, I am motivated more than ever to continue with my education and maintain a high competitive GPA.
