It is extremely competitive. In this market, Hitachi Ltd., Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.,
Sony Corporation, Panasonic Corporation, LG Inc. are the most well-known stocks, which
are traded competitively on the market. Many investors are monitoring these stocks and their
competitors daily. Analyzing and forecasting of these stocks could give some ideas about
historic, current, and future market value of those stocks to investors and to researchers for
the consumer electronics markets and the market's direction. Therefore, it was considered a
reasonable topic for this bachelor thesis. The thesis will focus on analyzing the stocks with
the time series analysis methods. It is planned to be mostly quantitative by using EViews for
time series analysis. Additionally, all the methods used will be explained in the methodology
part. The methodology goes very basic and in literature review all the methods and necessary
terms and jargon will be explained. Therefore, this study could be understood by any
individual with no finance knowledge. For instance, a potential investor with capital but
lacking financial information. Therefore, this thesis can be seen as a handbook for a starting
investor, which would be another purpose of this thesis. The study will answer if there is an
increasing trend on the consumer electronics market and if this could be explained by time
series data. As mentioned, main financial terms and topics to understand how to use time
series analysis and assessing volatility will be explained. Stock data from Yahoo Finance
will be used. The calculations will mainly be done through Microsoft Excel.
