FIN4504 Discussion 1 – Research and identify one security

Discussion 1- Fin 4504

Topic

Research and identify one security that you believe is an attractive investment opportunity. It can be for a long position (expecting a price increase) or a short position (expecting a price decrease). Support your recommendation with evidence of fundamental or technical analysis. You do not have to perform fundamental or technical analysis by yourself from scratch, as you can use freely available resources to screen and identify securities. An example of a free resource is Yahoo! FinanceLinks to an external site..

After you post your recommendation, you need to provide your comments on the posts of at least two of your peers.

Use the discussion board to report on your assignment. Additionally, you may want to describe, in your own words, the insights, doubts, queries, and serendipitous findings when presented with the content in this module and discuss how you came to understand the concept. This should not be undigested information copied from course materials or internet resources.

Unit 7 – A 65-year-old white female sustains a fall forward

U 7

Case Study

A 65-year-old white female sustains a fall forward, with outstretched left arm bracing her fall, and lands on her left shoulder. She is out of the country when the injury occurs. She uses a scarf as a sling for support. On return home she sees her PCP. She has limited ROM to abduction, adduction, internal, and external rotation. An x-ray is ordered and demonstrates no fractures. She is placed in a shoulder mobilizer and given an anti-inflammatory. She regains her mobility with some continued soreness. Three months later, the patient develops severe pain in her left shoulder. She cannot turn over in the bed due to pain. She cannot raise her arm over her head, and the limited ROM has returned.
