Ethical Reasoning, Values, and Critical Reasoning
This week’s discussion question asks you to draw upon the interactive lecture and readings for this week and address two of the following four questions regarding concepts of ethical reasoning:
What is the essential basis for ethical reasoning, according to Paul and Elder? Why are ethical principles not a matter of subjective preference?
How might reasoning processes be used to achieve unethical goals? What examples of this have you witnessed in your personal or professional life?
What are some challenges of moral absolutism and moral relativism?
How do you assess religious ideals as a source of value and ethics? How would Azlin Puteh Salin, Ab Manan, Kamaluddin, and Nawawi (2017) argue for specific types of religious ethics as a means to think critically? Why might Norenzayan (2014) challenge their thinking?

FIN 340 Module Six Journal Guidelines and Rubric
Overview: This journal activity is private between you and the instructor. This assignment will allow you to assess the impact of news on stocks and bonds. News can affect stock and bond prices in significant ways. This is because news disseminates into the market at different speeds and with different levels of importance. As investors, you need to think about how information flows through market participants and into securities. Surprise news can jolt the market up or down, whereas gradual dissemination can result in a slow buildup or deterioration in prices/yields. Additionally, market participants sometimes build expectations beforehand, and prices react differently than people expected because the news did not meet or exceed expectations. All of these dynamics can supply important information to apply to an investors portfolio decisions.
Prompt: Complete both of the following scenarios:
1) Choose a stock from list below:
International Business Machines Corporation (IBM)
The Coca-Cola Company (KO)
Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (BMY)
Oracle Corporation (ORCL)
3M Company (MMM)
Baxter International, Inc. (BAX)
Big Lots, Inc. (BIG)
Netflix, Inc. (NFLX)
Akamai Technologies, Inc. (AKAM)
General Electric Company (GE)
Then, go to Yahoo! Finance or another website and find a news article that you believe would impact the companys stock price.
Calculate the return of the chosen stock for:
The two weeks prior to the news
The day of the news
The two weeks after the news
Explain how the actual impact of the news on the stock price aligned with your initial expectation after reading the news article.
2) Choose a significant economic report (unemployment, GDP, etc.) or Federal Reserve Open Market Committee announcement.
Then, use Yahoo! Finance to research the historical pricing of the CBOE 10 year treasury yield (symbol: ^TNX). Calculate the percentage change for:
The 2 weeks prior to the news
The day of the news
The 2 weeks after the news
Explain how the actual impact of the news on the bond yield aligned with your initial expectation after reading the news article. Be sure to show your work to get full credit for these calculations.
Specifically the following critical elements must be addressed:
Calculate the return of the chosen stock for the two weeks prior to the news, the day of the news, and the two weeks after the news. Show your work to support your response.
Explain whether the news article had the impact on the stock price that you expected.

Acts and Consequences
Module 05 Content
Maya was excited about her job interview with the firm where she had always thought she wanted to work. The meetings at the office went well, and the interview team invited her to the firm’s traditional meet-the-candidate dinner. Maya declined an offer of a drink before dinner because she wanted to stay sharp and focused.
One of the interviewers leaned over and said, “Better get used to socializing over drinks and dinner. That’s how a lot of our firm’s business is done.” During the meal, while Maya was conversing with another interviewer, she overheard one of the other interviewers say to another, “Isn’t she lovely? She’s so exotic looking. I wonder what her ethnic background is.”
When the dessert tray came around, Maya chose her favorite. “Just this once,” one of the interviewers chuckled. “You should really lose about ten pounds to be in good form to represent this firm well.”
Maya left the dinner feeling very unsettled, but thought to herself, “Well, it’s still a good firm overall, even if these interviewers were jerks.” She was surprised to receive a letter a few days later, politely thanking her for her interest, but indicating that the firm had hired another candidate for the position Maya was seeking.
In a 2-3 page paper address the following:
Did Maya do anything wrong, as a matter of law or as a matter of ethics?
Did any of the interviewers do anything wrong as a matter of law or as a matter of ethics? Cite any applicable laws.
Do you think the firm would be liable if Maya were to bring a lawsuit against the firm, claiming that they engaged in illegal discrimination against her?
