Week 8 Reading Reflection

1) What was the biggest surprise for you in the reading? In other words, what did you read that stood out the most as different from your expectations? 

The biggest surprise for me in the reading this week was the part explaining the study of the market for venture capital and to review venture capitalists’ evaluation criteria for new ventures.

2) Identify at least one part of the reading that was confusing to you.

The part of the reading that was confusing to me was the part where it explained equity financing.

3) If you were able to ask two questions to the author, what would you ask? Why?

When would a corporation be "ready" to "go public" in the market?
How does one build themselves to be a very sophisticated investor?

4) Was there anything you think the author was wrong about? Where do you disagree with what she or he said? How?

I do not think the author was wrong about anything in the reading this week. I agreed with everything I read.
