Topics of Interest

Corporate Finance, particularly Macroeconomics of Cororate Finance, Corporate Contingent Claim Pricing, Term Strcuture of Interest Rates, Financial Markets are among the most favored topics of interest, but I do admit that I more inclined toward applied/impirical work than analytical/theory!
You could say a carry over habit of mine from old "Engineering Days"!
