• The shareholders are the owners of the company. They elect the members of the Board of Directors. The members of the Board of Directors select the officers of the company. The shareholders are trying to earn a return on their investment. Is it important for officers of a company to also be shareholders in that company? Why or why not?
• Do you think that stock options for managers more correctly align the interests of shareholders and managers? Why or why not?
• Calculate the correlation coefficient of returns between an international stock and a U.S. stock over the past year. You get to choose the stocks.
