Stock Market Project

STOCK MARKET PROJECT

Select a publicly traded company and report it to Mrs. Largo. No two students can report on the same company!

Research the company from at least two different web sites.
Prepare an eye-catching, well-constructed poster using a medium to
large size poster. (8 1/2 x 11 is too small).
Data to be included into the poster:
- Complete name of the company.
- Product line(s).
- Location of the corporate office.
- Graph of the stock activity over the past year.
- Two news articles that affect company stock.
- Ticker Symbol.
- Price of one share of stock
- Price of a round lot
- Works cited.
- A brief statement (2-4 sentences) as to whether or not you would buy this stock and why/why not.
You may print out the data and affix printouts to your poster, but be creative as to how you present the material!
