Financial Analysis: Care To Try Your Hand?



What do you say we switch up your "Week" routine and throw a little financial analysis into the mix. At some point today - either from Ned, Mr. Flanagan, or Ms. Brooks - you're going to get a lesson in the basics of the marketplace.

Armed with that newly acquired knowledge, I'd like you to look at the Business section of The Week and come up with three financial recommendations based on what you read. Sound's simple enough, right?

Here's the tricky part: any fool can make obvious recommendations about which stocks to buy and sell based on what they read in the news, but it takes a truly critical thinker to make the connections that can lead to the big bucks.

Good luck.

  • Read the business section of The Week.
  • Based on what you've read, MAKE THREE RECOMMENDATIONS ON STOCKS TO BUY/SELL.
  • On a separate sheet of paper, write your recommendations down in complete sentences and be sure to let me know about which article you are writing.
  • DUE THURSDAY @ 2:oo
