International diversification and portfolio risk
KRÁL, Tomáš
The thesis analyses the relationship between international diversification and portfolio risk. The aim of the thesis is to construct and analyse a custom investment portfolio of selected international stocks and evaluate how diversification of these assets from different markets affects the overall portfolio risk. In the theoretical part, the basic terms are defined in order to understand this work. The practical part includes the German portfolio and the international portfolio which each consists of ten chosen stocks of companies that are traded on a stock exchange during the period from January 1, 2019 to January 1, 2024. Each company in the German portfolio was matched by a company in the international portfolio with a similar size of market capitalisation and business in the same sector. Then in the practical part the historical rates of return, historical values of risk, coefficients of variation, covariances and correlations of all stocks and historical rates of return, historical values of risk and effective boundaries of these two portfolios are calculated. Then the efficient boundaries are compared, the efficient boundary of the international portfolio achieved higher monthly historical rates of return at lower historical values of risk than the efficient boundary of the German portfolio. The results of this work are intended to serve as a tool to better understand the impact of international diversification on portfolio risk and may offer recommendations for investors on optimal asset allocation in an international investment environment.

Stock portfolio strategy and analysis of its return and risk
PERNÍK, Jan
This study focuses on stock portfolio construction strategies to identify optimal approaches for short-term investments and to assess the trade-off between risk and return. One of the five portfolios was constructed by analysing undervalued stocks using the discounted future free cash flow method, which is described in detail in the study. The paper compares the portfolios with their alternatives calculated by maximizing the Sharpe ratio. We evaluate the risk and performance of the portfolios using the Sharpe ratio, Traynor ratio, Jensen's alpha, and Information ratio to determine the effectiveness of the strategies and their applicability in real scenarios. Finally, we discuss whether optimization is a useful tool in portfolio construction.

Fundamental analysis of the selected stock
KOLAŘÍK, Jakub
The main goal of this bachelor thesis is to assess the intrinsic value of a chosen stock by using fundamental analysis For this work the company Kofola Československo, a.s was chosen. The main part of the work is to calculate the intrinsic value with chosen models, then compare it with the market price to date 30. 12. 2022 and make the investment recommendation. Six models were chosen for the thesis: single staged dividend discount model, profit models Sharp's P/E and P/S model, cashflow model FCFE and historical models P/S and P/D. During comparison with the market price, which was 244 Czech crowns, only historical model P/D and FCFE model showed that the stock is overvalued and didn't recommend it for the investor. Profit model P/S wasn't suitable for comparison because the sales growth rate was higher than required rate of return, so it led to negative intrinsic value result. Investor's option is to decide which model is relevant for them to decide whether to buy the stock or not. Another option for him is to make an average of intrinsic values of the relevant models and based on this result decide about buying or selling the stock.
