Additionally, you are required to support your position by using at least one recent reference from an academic journal or prominent business publication (e.g.,<span style=\"cursor: auto;\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; cursor: auto;\">The Wall Street Journal<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; cursor: auto;\">,<span style=\"cursor: auto;\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; cursor: auto;\">Barron\u2019<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; cursor: auto;\">s,<span style=\"cursor: auto;\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; cursor: auto;\">Fortun<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; cursor: auto;\">e,<span style=\"cursor: auto;\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; cursor: auto;\">Investor\u2019s Business Daily<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; cursor: auto;\">, etc.). A recent reference is one that has a publication date that is less than one year old as of the beginning of the semester. Importantly, references from websites do not qualify unless those websites are part of a reputable print publication. For example, Investopedia.com can be used, but it does not count as a reference that satisfies the criteria of a recent reference.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Select a publicly traded company that trades on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) or on the NASDAQ to analyze.
