Lab at-a-Glance
When Gregory Lumsden, whose generous support made the Trading Room and Research Lab a reality, started his MBA at Old Dominion University he had never studied business and had been working in the public sector. After being exposed to the fundamentals of accounting, finance, operations management, and marketing, he knew that he was on his way to a new career path.
After graduation Lumsden obtained a Series 7 general securities representative license and sold mortgage-backed securities. In doing so, he had the opportunity to experience trading on Wall Street. He described the experience, "I watched the flow of information in the 1980s and early 1990s really change how the mortgage-backed arena sold and traded both securities and options. I want to help ODU students get in touch with how it works today - for all securities."
