Strategic Management: Text and Cases

The problem concerning PJ came about when the former eastern block countries became commercially competitive in western capitalism and trade. These countries begin to sell large amounts of cheap PJ and mineral oil on the markets in Europe. Rather quickly, these new PJ sources flooded the European market and quality control analysis begin to show that these PJ products contained significant levels of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH’s) that have been identified as possible carcinogens in humans. Many of these oils and PJ’s were brown and yellow indicating they had not been refined extensively. Thus, the EU, and even the FDA developed revised standards to prevent their further introduction into the consumer market. Consequently, the banned that most people are confused on is not so much as PJ but unrefined PJ. Unscheduled visits by EP and FDA officials on production site, random record examinations, and independent QC checks subject any manufacturer that refines PJ to much scrutiny. In truth, established PJ manufactures have been making PJ and mineral oil products that either meet or surpass FDA or EU cosmetics and food-grade standards long before the 2004 initiative. In any event, the banned only is directed to PJ’s and oils that cannot meet the rigid cosmetic and food-grade standards. For record the 2004 ban on petroleum oils reads as follows:

In the European Union’s Dangerous Substances Directive (UNECE 2004), in September 2004 banned all petroleum oils with the following caveat: “The classification as a carcinogen need not apply if the full refining history is known and it can be shown that the substance from which it is produced is not a carcinogen.”

Chemical industry sources have interpreted this clause to mean that PJ will continue to be allowed in cosmetics in the EU if it is refined and meets PAH purity standards for food set by FDA (Faust and Casserly 2003). Even this purity standard does not set direct limits on PAH content, but instead relies on a light absorption test as an indirect indicator of contamination. This means any PJ that have a certified history of traceable refinement and meets and passes all PAH standards established by the EP, FDA, JP governments could still be used in cosmetics and in fact are used today.

More than 90% of people trading the share market lose money because the majority do not use correct Money & Risk Management principles or have the discipline to follow them.
Money Management, Position / Trade Sizing No matter what you call it, You Better Know It!

“Money Management is like sex: Everyone does it, one way or the other, but not many like to talk about it and some do it better than others. But there’s a big difference: Sex sites on the Web proliferate, while sites devoted to the science of Money & Risk Management are somewhat difficult to find.”                     – Gibbons Burke

NEVER risk more than 2% of your Trading Capital on any one trade.                                 e.g. If you have $30,000 your maximum risk is $600 but what many forget is to also cater for brokerage. If it’s say $50 RT your maximum risk is now $550 and a stop is set appropriately so if your share drops in value by $550 you EXIT first opportunity.

Never Trade with more than 20% of Trading Capital on any trade.
e.g. Again, if you have $30K your trade size would be $6000 but I prefer to use 19% so if I have 5 open trades and will still have 5% of my trading capital out of the market to allow for things like slippage, education, data, etc.

Here’s a simple mistake many make regarding their Trading Capital?                        e.g. My 1st trade is now worth $7000, up $1000 so I decide to open my 2nd trade.

Do I base my next trade TC value $26,000 or $20,000 or $25,000 again?

The correct method is to first determine the share value if your current stop was hit. You may be up $1000 but your trailing stop is set and if hit you make less, say $900 so the next calculation would be based on $30,000 + $900. Your true Trading Capital is your available Cash + or – the value of all open positions if all stops were hit.

”The only things in life that are certain are Death and Taxes!” Benjamin Franklin
So it should be noted that past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance but you can control the risk you’re exposed to.

It’s the 21st Century and it’s quite normal to manage one’s own investments, yet very few implement disciplined, professional money risk management principles or understand them. During the stock market boom, limiting risk was always an afterthought, but given the recent volatility & market conditions, let’s get serious!

Professional Money and Risk Management strategies, used correctly and together, will be your foundation to trading success. Essentially, Money Management tells you how many shares to trade at any given time and Stop placement is where you must accept you have made the wrong decision, close that trade and move on. It is a defensive concept that keeps you in the game to play another day. Don’t confuse Money Management with Stop placement. Stop placement does not answer the question, how much?

Risk Management is the difference between success and failure when trading shares. It refers to Stop placement and will minimize any losses and you WILL have them but will also maximise any profits and this stop is called a Trailing, Maintenance or Profit Stop.

Money Management optimizes capital usage. Few have the ability to view their portfolios as a whole. Even fewer traders and investors make the move from a defensive or reactive view of risk, in which they measure risk to avoid losses, to an offensive or proactive posture in which risks are actively managed for a more efficient use of capital. JBL Risk Manager will help you do all of the above and very easily.

JBL Risk Manager is a simple but Professional Money Risk Management program that was specifically developed to combat the above problem BUT unfortunately the trial is currently only available to those that receive or have access to MetaStock format data. It will automatically calculate your Trade Size, Stop Loss price, Trailing Stop, Break-even price and so much more, based on the last close. It will, of course, also allow you to change your anticipated buy price to actual buy price (slippage) It will indicate when to look for another trade and also automatically report on your performance by showing you your portfolio %win-loss ratios, average $win-loss, trade expectancy and much more, accurately. The latest version now includes, with permission from The Van Tharp Institute, performance values such as R-Multiples, R-Expectancy and System Quality Number. I hope you give this program a trial. After more than a decade helping novice and seasoned individuals understand the importance of Money Risk Management I am pleased to say this simple program will do that and remove emotion and guesswork from your trading decisions.

You also have available to you a facility to enter a Technical Stop as your trailing Stop, if you wish, but after many years of testing and research I have found that most use Technical Analysis for entry and correct Money Risk Management for their exit. Long term investors may use Fundamental Analysis to find financially healthy companies first then TA for entry and MR Management for exit. That is all for now.

If we think about a comprehensive healthcare risk management solution, what are some of the things that come to mind? If you look up this topic on the internet, you’re sure to receive a litany of different answers. Healthcare risk management could mean managing the risks of who is going to pay you, managing privacy issues, or handling the risk of security breaches – the list goes on and on. I sat down with one of the most experienced healthcare professionals I know to give me her perspective on risk from the top. Her name is Marsha Burke, and she was most recently the Chief Executive Officer of WellStar Health System, one of the largest health systems with over $1 billion in annual revenue and over 1,300 hospital beds.

Identifying a Proper Risk Management Solution

One of the biggest healthcare risk management issues on her mind was patient safety. This topic has garnered lots of attention in the news, and multiple groups have dedicated teams reviewing this initiative. I asked Marsha Burke about all the advancements that hospitals have made with respect to patient safety, and if it was still possible to walk in to a patient’s room with unvetted access. The answer was yes. “Certain areas have more security than others, such as the baby ward and the intensive care units, but it would be very difficult to try to secure all rooms of an entire hospital,” mentioned Marsha. It is true that security can at times collide with commerce, but hence the term risk management…not risk elimination.

The biggest concerns around healthcare risk management security issues seem to still involve people. We see it all the time where doctors whose medical licenses have been revoked are still practicing or where a nurse who isn’t certified somehow gets through the system. How do you fix this problem? Marsha said that “if there was a healthcare risk management solution that could constantly monitor any changes in criminal history or licensure status and instantly alert the employer if there has been a new incident, that tool could be immensely helpful.” Again, all of this boils down to cost.

Supply chains have also become a major healthcare risk management issue for many industries. Many new laws now require that contractor employees be screened almost to the same degree as any new employee beginning work. With this amount of new work, it is almost impossible to operate without getting new funding. In the healthcare field, securing new funding, particularly for non-profits, can be difficult. “It always helps to be able to draw a parallel between outgoing costs and securing new revenue,” said Marsha.

Ensuring Patient Safety & Other Concerns

Being as risk-conscious as a CEO of a major healthcare chain needs to be, Marsha successfully implemented a healthcare risk management solution powered by the latest technology. Healthcare is a technologically-driven enterprise, but even with all the advancements in the world of MRI’s, CT scans, and robotic surgeries, it’s still a very service-oriented business, and service requires people. You still have lots of people coming and going. It’s pretty easy to make sure your machines are secure, but the biggest risk is still people. That’s what a hospital’s most important asset is. “Managing the risk between patients, employees, suppliers, sales reps and everyone else coming onto the property can be daunting, but it is still the most important part of a healthcare enterprise,” Marsha re-iterated in closing.

Finding a risk management solution that works, while keeping to financial constraints, is a necessity. Fortunately, there are healthcare risk management systems that exist to assist with all of these different issues. Some may do everything, or nothing, or anything in between. The important issue to remember when it comes to finding a healthcare risk management solution is DO NOT DO NOTHING. Patient safety isn’t an issue that is going to go away and, with all the political discussions regarding healthcare, now is not a time to be on the front page news explaining a lack of a risk management solution. As Marsha mentioned, there are many facets of risk, but people are still the biggest one.
