Comment:
Professor Webb has no idea what it means to teach an introductory finance course. The fact that the average was a 70 on the first exam is indicative of just that. The tests are not a measure of how well you know the information, but rather how well you can integrate "there ain't magic in finance" into your essay responses.

He knows and has done everything. Read and study his slides - especially his daily news updates. Great suits. Takes a while to get used to him but my favorite ICE teacher by the end of the first semester

Comment:
This is class is excellent for those who want to learn about trading and those who've already got their heads into it. Lots of guest speakers, great readings (Market Wizards, NMW and Webb's book) and general news analysis. The class is less structured than the average investments or corp finance class, but you definitely learn tons.

Comment:
Webb is a really great guy, but he's too smart to be teaching introductory Finance. I am not a finance person, and everything he said the entire year was way above my head. He never really goes through the basics-just starts out assuming you know a lot about finance. If finance isn't your thing, be prepared to be very confused. tests aren't bad
