Management Instructions for Portfolio Investment Project

Objective
The objective of this project is for you to manage a portfolio by investing $500,000 of your imaginable money in
any stocks, options, or futures that are traded on the following exchanges: New York Stock Exchange,
NASDAQ and American Stock Exchange. You can also execute short selling, and trade on margin at an annual
interest rate of 4%. There is no need that your portfolio should necessarily outperform the market. What you
are expected to do is to use the concepts you learn in this unit to take buy/sell/hold decisions of securities,
trade frequently, analyse the performance of your portfolio and submit the report.
