INVESTMENT ANALYSIS

  1. Analyzing previous investment decisions by looking back at the thought process of coming up with the investment decision. Key factors should include the following: entry price, postulated time horizon, and reasons for making the decision at that time period.
  2. Studying the possible performance of an investment and how appropriate it is for a specific investor. Investment analysis is a key to having a sound portfolio-management strategy. If an investor cannot do their own analysis, he can seek professional advice from a financial advisor.
