"Student Investment Fund in a Book" (SIF 6e) is precisely what the title suggests: A complete end-to-end guide for running a student investment fund at a college or university. Beginning with a simplified investment policy, SIF 6e covers the entire process from selecting student members, analyzing stocks, preparing student presentations, and voting on those presentations for inclusion in the portfolio. SIF 6e also covers detailed stock screening, fundamental analysis, and technical analysis techniques. While I cannot guarantee market-beating performance, this book can equip students with a comprehensive analysis framework they can extend. Thank you for purchasing "Student Investment Fund in a Book." This is the sixth edition of what began as a random collection of notes. Over time, I organized those notes, refined the content, added more content, and assembled this book. I provide detailed examples, including Excel spreadsheet screenshots with formulas and R code to perform the all-important initial screening of stocks. I wish you well on your pursuit of understanding and, hopefully, market-beating performance. -David J. Moore, Ph.D. Sacramento, California
