Portfolio Selection & Management
_____________________________________________________________
•Review – Considers the market & Intrinsic value conditions for marketable securities.
•Strategy Implementation – Buy & Hold, Sell, Long & Short Buy or Sell
•Market Participants - Investor, Hedger, Arbitrageur & Speculator
•Portfolio Indicators – Market price Volume, Net Present Value or Rate of Return
_____________________________________________________________
# - indicates the strategy implementation
is a complex combination of BUY, HOLD or SELL situations which
can be taken by the investor or client. The investment decisions are however
dependent upon both the financial or portfolio advisor and the client or
the investor for the prevailing market conditions. The combinations shown
in the slide are for indicative purposes ONLY. In reality there are much more possibilities
than that are shown in the block.
It does not bear any resemblance with actual market behavior as the real market is
dependent upon the several other factors & increasingly complex. The “x” & “V” marks
In the block represent the individual situation taken by the investor or client during the
process of portfolio management whilst trading the portfolio of securities.
‘ *Others include Commercial Banks, Central & Non bank dealers, Financial institutions
Treasuries, Foreign exchange brokers .Refers to the derivatives market or
other financial markets like Equity , Capital markets etc.
With increasing portfolio risk, the dilution of P/E or EPS occurs, therefore in most situations
Market participants resort to hedging , arbitragueing or speculating.
