Application of Financial Analyses and StockTrak Simulation

Based on your original research and analyses, discuss three (3) examples of stock trades (either "Buy/Long" position or "Sell/Short" position) performed in our StockTrak simulation game. Importantly, support your stock trades with applications of corporate finance theories and financial analyses.

Suggestion #1: Perform stock trades in our StockTrak simulation based on your own insight, analyses, and applications of corporate finance theories. Your stock trading strategies should be supported by financial data, financial analyses, and applications of corporate finance theories/concepts (e.g., different types of market imperfections, etc.).

Suggestion #2: You may start with firm performance measures and financial ratios (e.g., financial ratios such as ROA, ROE, payout ratio, etc.; firm performance measures such as Free Cash Flow (FCF); useful market measures such as Forward P/E, P/B, and Beta) as the basis for your equity selection.

Suggestion #3: You may also consider equity selection based on different firm types and different industries/sectors. Thus, you may try long-buying or short-selling positions in your trading strategies.

Suggestion #4: Importantly, perform equity trades based on corporate finance news, announcements, or events. In your examples of stock trades, please discuss the timing of your trades (e.g., during corporate finance news, announcements, or events).

-Useful corporate news/events for equity trading strategies may include the following: earnings announcements, equity/debt offering announcements, dividends announcements, corporate restructuring, M&As, CEO turnover, and other corporate events that may affect firm value and performance.

-The followings provide useful resources of corporate financial events and information for your stock trades:
