Raymond James & Associates and the University of Southern Indiana's College of Business will host a lecture by stock market expert Mark Boucher on campus this week. Boucher will present "Macroeconomics Events Affecting Today's Financial Markets," from 6 to 7 p.m. Thursday, April 7, in Carter Hall in the University Center.

Boucher is the author of The Hedge Fund Edge: Maximum Profit/Minimum Risk Global Trend Trading Strategies. He began trading at the age of 16, and his trading helped him finance his education at the University of California-Berkeley, where he earned a degree in economics. Upon graduation, he founded Investment Research Associates to finance research on stock, bond, and currency trading systems. Investment Research and Associates has been ranked number one in its category by Nelson's "World's Best Money Managers."

In 1986, he joined forces with Fortunet, Inc., where he developed models for hedging and trading bonds, currencies, futures, and stocks. In 1989, some of the results of this research were published in Fortunet Trading. While with Fortunet, Boucher also applied this research to designing institutional products, such as a hedging model on over $1 billion of debt exposure for the treasurer of a Fortune 500 company. Boucher has advised on- and off-shore clients as well as various institutional managers using risk management strategies and models based on research he has developed.

Boucher's lecture is free and open to the public. For more information, call the College of Business at 812/464-1718.
