* I have uploaded the previous report which you done for me to use to complete the task below.. thanks in advance.
You may be following your stock every day, but if you’re not, for Week 8 you must:
- Record the current price of the stock for each company you selected in Week 3’s Stock Journal. You may use any price during this week (e.g., day one price, the opening, the low, the high, the close, or any price you find when you check it during the day). Using MS Excel spreadsheet or MS Word document, put your Week 3 and Week 8 stock prices side-by-side, to show your comparison.
- Determine the current value of your total investment. Do not make any changes to your investment at this time. Calculate your total based on the number of shares and the new price per share, for each company.
- Provide your opinion / assessment of your investments. Evaluate the results of your current investment. Are you happy with the result and the trend? Are you upset because you’re investment is worth less than $25,000. Feel free to speculate / guess at why you believe the stock increased, decreased, or remained static.
Your final journal assignment will be to report the final value of your shares in Week 10.

The Starbucks stock price fell when compared to the other company’s stock, but the coffee roaster, marketer and retailer stock has risen in the past one year. In the 2019 fiscal year and Q4, the company reported on Oct 30, 2019 and the stock rose because of better than expected results.
