Steps for completing the Investment Tracking Spreadsheet and Final Project
Source of the Data
I recommend the Yahoo website (www.yahoo.com/finance) for your weekly performance data. However, you may choose whatever website that is easier for you. The spreadsheet needs to be completed on every Friday after 4 PM (the market closing date)
You are required to write a weekly assessment (even on non-submissions week) on the weekly performance of your portfolio.
Week 1 Only (Monday)
Pick four stocks and insert the name in Column B
Type the trading symbols next to the names of the stocks in column C
Go to Yahoo and pick the prices for the respective stocks of your choice this coming Friday and insert the data in Column D
Go to column A and choose the number of stocks you intend to purchase for each of the respective stocks. They should add up to approximately $100,000.
