Business Question

General indications for your mini-research

You can choose a company that you predict will do well or badly in the medium to long term, and which therefore could experience significant increases or decreases in the value of its shares. You could choose it by taking a look at the main megatrends, or other considerations that you might consider valid, also in relation to what we examined in class. Your mini-research can be relatively short (roughly speaking, 3-4 pages of a Word document, or around 5 Power Point slides; however, choose the length you prefer; slides are better if you want to present it in class, otherwise you can choose slides or a word document and send it to me before the end of our Spring Semester).

Using internet, you could find many companies you could focus on. Here-below, one of the many possible lists showing interesting companies that are often considered good possible picks for possible investments (of course, not all analysts would agree …). As we said in class, you can also find on Moodle a short and quick reference to some interesting megatrends you could consider/mention when you carry out your research
