| Abstract: | This study evaluates the recent performance of stocks of major industry groups in the Asia-Pacific region. The objective of the study is to guide international investors who are exploring the possibility of investing in this region but are unsure of which specific industries to invest in. Risk-adjusted stock returns (expressed in U.S. dollars) are calculated for each industry group and sub-group in the region. Based on stock performance, recommendations are made for inclusion of specific industries in an Asia-Pacific investment portfolio. |
