[Here is the Week 3 Response I did: Just to keep in mind]
The three companies I’d like to invest are Tesla, Inc (NASDAQ), Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ) and JPMorgan (NYSE). Tesla is such a high demand for the new generation of electric vehicles that we are transitioning into nowadays, stocks as of October 20 is at $345.10. The next company is revolutionizing the shopping experience online and expanding tremulously by buying out Whole Foods which is the top US seller for organic items. There is definitely some light in the tunnel for some profits in the future, stocks as of October 20 is at $982.91. Lastly, the third company I choose for this project is JPMorgan because the bank holds the top spot with $2.39 trillion in asset, with Bank of America being second with $2.17 billion in asset. Not only is JPMorgan the big dog in the banking business, but I believe their performance will increase under Trumps administration given his vows to “dismantle” the Dodd-Frank Act and reduce corporate tax rates. Their stock prices are at $99.51 as of October 20 as well.
