'''PHDBA 239DA - Financial Market Microstructure''' is a PhD level course that is required for finance students. This page details the course as it was taught by [http://www2.haas.berkeley.edu/Faculty/parlour_christine.aspx Christine Parlour] in the Spring of 2011.
==Overview==
The following class overview was taken from the [http://www.edegan.com/repository/PHDBA239DA-Syllabus.pdf course outline]:
This is a 7 week course in market microstructure. Market Microstructure
is the study of the price formation mechanism. It also typically addresses
what we can learn from prices (i.e., the information content of a trade).
In �nance as we are obsessed with prices, studying how they arise from
agents' strategic behavior seems a sensible place to start. As data are readily
available, there is a voluminous empirical literature. Given that a lot of the
models are very stylized and the operation of the markets so complex, the
empirical work is aggressively reduced form. Needless to say, I won't cover
the empirical work { this does not represent my comparative advantage.1
After the crisis, researchers in other �elds (asset pricing) are beginning to
understand that understanding the mechanics of trade is important. I will try
to address how some of the ideas of microstructure have been incorporated
into the other �elds. Given the brevity of the course, this list is both short
and idiosyncratic.
==Evaluation==
The class is evaluated on:
#A referee report on current working paper
#A 2-5 page paper proposal
#Three optional assignments
