After the word of Soros, who claims that the lowest point of the downturn is behind us, and number of other market practitioners there is now even more optimism in the financial industry.
The most notable signal I observe is the revival of the job market for graduates. In last two weeks I observed number of companies approaching students in London. Just to mention few, I have seen a private equity company (Blackstone) willing to find 4-5 interns for the summer, a management consultancy (Bain) willing to find 2-3 graduates for full time job from summer 2009.
It seems that companies are now expecting the worst to be over and they are preparing themselves for the possible recovery.
It seems that financial degrees and CFAs or CAIAs are not dead yet. It seems that people with these qualifications will probably be able to find a job really quickly, when the markets improve. This means that starting CFA or a Masters degree in a respected institution might be a good choice right now. When markets recover (and they surely recover sooner or later) graduates will be able to profit.
