Introduction
I
have
chosen
three
companies
to
invest
$30,000
in
stocks
from
July
18
to
August
1:
a
high-‐risk
company
Yahoo!
Inc.,
a
low
risk
company
Microsoft
Corporation
and
Korean
company
POSCO.
For
Yahoo!
Inc.,
I
spent
$7,512.82
to
buy
521
shares
of
the
stock.
At
the
closing
date,
the
price
of
a
share
slightly
went
down
as
$1.32.
For
Microsoft
Corporation,
I
paid
$5,049.94
for
566
shares
of
the
stock
and
I
could
earn
$0.68
per
share.
Lastly,
I
could
make
a
profit
in
POSCO.
I
invested
$7,425.89
for
71
shares
of
the
stock,
and
the
price
of
a
share
went
up
until
$110.60.
So
I
will
earn
$123.87
in
total
if
I
sell
all
the
stocks
I
invested
on
August
1.

Analysis
1. Yahoo!
Inc.
(YHOO):
High-‐risk
Although
Yahoo!
Inc.
is
considered
as
a
high-‐risk
company
that
is
an
Internet
based-‐on
company,
I
thought
Yahoo!
Inc.
is
already
a
big
company
that
can
deal
with
problems.
