Video Reflection 2 [WLOs: 2, 3, 5] [CLOs:1, 2, 3, 4]

In the past two weeks, you have chosen a publicly traded company and have prepared Section 3 of the Week 5 final project. Section 3 evaluated the stock price of the company using the constant growth formula. This week, you practiced NPV calculations in the discussion, and you are working on Section 4 of the Final Project. In Section 4, you will use the capital asset pricing model (CAPM) to calculate the company’s required rate of return. Then, using this CAPM required rate of return, you will recalculate the company’s stock price using the constant growth formula.

At this point, you have begun to develop an understanding of the value of the company’s stock. Ultimately, you will need to decide if you can recommend investing in this company’s stock (with a buy recommendation) or if you do not feel it is a good investment (a sell recommendation). For many companies, the evidence will be quite strong in one direction or the other. For other companies, the evidence will be conflicting, and you may consider issuing a hold recommendation.
