Introduction
In my report as requested I picked one component of MSM30 Index sample. I have chosen to talk about Bank Muscat Share (BKMB) to analyze its performance based on historical trading data from the period of 2005 to 2008 and comparing it with the performance of the market performance represented by MSM30 Index. In addition, the report studied the relationship between the risk indicator "Beta" of the firm and the required rate of return that are asked by investor to invest his/her capital in that stock. This is in return the cost of capital for the company.

Executive summery
Bank Muscat is very well known institution in the area and one of the main competitors in banking sector. He is really expanding very fast, he have an excellent management team. The bank has raised the money to finance his investments through both equity and debt (bonds). Currently the outstanding number of shares of the bank is (1,077,133,715) and trades in the market for 0.84 Baisa. Imperative to mention is that the bank had implemented stock split on March 2006, his par value now is .100 Baiza. The analysis show that the bank was doing well in the past few years but poorly in 2008 and this is because of the world financial crisis which affects all the markets around the world, in general the overall trend of the market in 2008 was going down. Analyzing the cost of capital of the bank either using book value

    Telstra Limited (TLS) is Australia's leading telecommunications and information services company, with one of the best known brands in the country. It offers a full range of services and competes in all telecommunications markets throughout Australia. (Telstra Financial Report, 2009) Ansell Limited (ANN) is a global leader in barrier protective solutions. It designs, develops and manufactures a wide range of hand and arm protection solutions, clothing and condoms (Ansell Financial Report, 2009). This report uses mean-variance method and CAPM approach, to form the portfolio combined two stocks TLS and ANN. By justifying five years (2005-2010) monthly data in using mean variance method to calculate the expected return (ANN 0.007488, TLS -0.004441), standard deviation (ANN 0.076531, TLS 0.053729), as well as beta (ANN 0.64, TLS 0.31). And then one year (2009) daily data to determine portfolio expected return in using CAPM method. With MV method, based on the justification and limitation, this report have not choose a optimize portfolio but only choose the portfolio number 29 with the smallest risk. However, under CAPM model, in evaluating the combination of its expected return and the beta, the report recommended portfolio number 29 based on 4 reasons. Firstly, the daily expected return calculated by CAPM model is much higher than daily risk free rate. Secondly, TLS is undervalued due to the SML. Thirdly, because the market is in dramatic change recently and low beta means low relation with market, so the number 29 is the most proper portfolio.…

    Many of the problems in rehabilitation in the third world countries arise due to the lack of financial resources. The lack of financial resources causes difficulty in regular continuation of medication and subsequent relapse of the illness. The lack of job opportunities also interferes with the rehabilitation. Sometimes societal insensitivity and expressed emotions in a family are responsible for the reemergence of the psychiatric symptoms. While in some cases long term stay in hospital also interferes in rehabilitation, because long-term hospital stay may produce the secondary negative symptoms in a patient. The difficulties also arise due to lack of trained staff and psychiatrists. The burn out problem cause rapid turnover to the staff and the staff have to be train again. The bureaucratic hurdles also slow down the processes of the rehabilitation. The field of rehabilitation is also preferred less by the psychiatrists.…

In this module students are from different background and from different country as well. This gives me an opportunity to meet new people and new ideas about the same problem which encourages me to have more and more discussion in and out of the class room. Especially in one class we discussed about successful initial public offering by M/s. Alibaba Plc., as it managed to generate highest capital investment for a new company. With this example I analysed myself the importance of time because in this example this company managed to generate highest ever capital by any company in the stock market because at that time stock markets were are trading at new high.…
