This is the first textbook for classes associated with student-managed investment funds (SMIFs). This growing, unserved market has previously relied on information provided by professors, a tactic that demands that professors master a range of diverse subjects. This can leave students with few or no information sources that address their questions regarding applied rather than theoretical subjects. This book focuses on "how-to" questions, distinguishing it from books on just portfolio theory and portfolio management. It offers much-needed solutions to workflow problems encountered by both professors and students. It is a textbook that delivers immediate answers to a wide audience.
