Applied Equity Analysis and Portfolio Management / Wiley Finance Editions (ePub)

A "hands-on" guide to applied equity analysis and portfolio
management

From asset allocation to modeling the intrinsic value of a
stock, Applied Equity Analysis and Portfolio Management + Online
Video Course offers readers a solid foundation in the practice
of fundamental analysis using the same tools and techniques as
professional investors. Filled with real-world illustrations and
hands-on applications, Professor Weigand's learning system takes a
rigorous, empirical approach to topics such as analyzing the
macro-finance environment, sector rotation, financial analysis and
valuation, assessing a company's competitive position, and
reporting the performance of a stock portfolio.

Unlike typical books on this subject--which feature
chapters to read and exercises to complete--this resource
allows readers to actively participate in the learning experience
by completing writing exercises and manipulating interactive
spreadsheets that illustrate the principles being taught. The
learning system also features instructional videos that demonstrate
how to use the spreadsheet models and excerpts from the author's
blog, which are used to depict additional examples of the analysis
process. Along the way, it skillfully outlines an effective
approach to creating and interpreting outputs typically associated
with a top-down money management shop -- including a
macroeconomic forecasting newsletter, detailed stock research
reports, and a portfolio performance attribution analysis.

* Covers topics including active and passive money management,
fundamental analysis and portfolio attribution analysis

* Companion streaming videos show how to use free online data to

stocks, and stock portfolios

* A valuable resource for universities who have applied equity

Practical and up-to-date, the book is an excellent resource for
those with a need for practical investment expertise.
