Abstract

Increasing attention is drawn to the stock market as the number of shares traded continues to reach new highs. The purchase of common stock as an effective hedge against inflation is also broadly discussed. Obviously, not all stock presently offered for sale will yield a favorable return on investment. The use of comprehensive financial analysis has proven to be essential in effective investment management. It is the purpose of this report to thoroughly analyze the Boise Cascade Corporation to determine whether or not the purchase of its common stock would be a profitable long-term investment.
