SWOT alone is not sufficient to fully understand the current situation of a company. There are environmental factors and industry factors that need to be evaluated. Porter's 5 Forces and PESTLE are very important strategic frameworks.
Because you only used one framework, you are essentially forced to use it to develop your strategy.

You did not create an analytics plan (10 points)
You did not create an adaptive plan that

I wrote the paper attached about automotive industry and I got C. So, the professor gave me another chance to do another paper, therefore, I picked mutual fund and there is a power point attached.

Airnova Inc. has two types of bonds, Bond D and Bond F. Both have 8 percent coupons, make semiannual payments, and are priced at par value. Bond D has 2 years to maturity. Bond F has 15 years to maturity.

Airnova Inc. is considering four different types of stocks. They each have a required return of 20 percent and a dividend of $3.75 for share. Stocks, A, B, and C are expected  to maintain constant growth rates in dividends for the near future of 10 percent, 0 percent, and -5 percent, respectively. Stock D is a growth stock and will increase its dividend by 30 percent for the next four years and then maintain a constant 12 percent growth rate after that.
