For your first assignment, you will be doing an industry analysis on an organization based on the materials covered in Modules 1-3. For this assignment, select a small-to-medium-sized business that is publically traded. You can locate a list of such companies at Yahoo! FinanceLinks to an external site.. My recommendation is that you select a company that you might be familiar with but with ample news coverage. Avoid private companies. Private companies have limited data available about them.
