ESB - Economics of Strategic Behavior 这是Professor Bruce Greenwald 所教授两门课程之一。另一门是Value Investing。两门都是“一句顶一万句”的经典J ESB 在我们最大的教室上课,容266人。去晚一点就要坐在地板上。这门课主要是关于industry analysis and game theory, in particular competitive advantages and interactions。 虽然这是Finance 的选修课,实际课程中也几乎涉及了我在商学院学过的全部核心课程,却只有心算级的计算,而且极为粗略,和Capital Markets, Debt Markets, even Advanced Corp Finance 有天壤之别。上课的时候由(Cold Call)几个学生分别代表案例中不同方面(公司,政府等)简单阐述自己的对策来Kick Off. 通常Greenwald 会随时打断来质询,步步紧逼,非常不客气,还会“民意调查”,不让大家闲着。对在大家面前丢了面子的学生,Greenwald说,If you say something intelligent, I will give you a really tough time.
There are only three sources for sustainable competitive advantage: 1. Economies of Scale 2. Proprietary Technology 3. Customer Captivity
