Project 3: Discuss Your Industry Analysis

Based on your reading, research, and analysis, respond to the two discussion questions below:

Discussion Topic 1:

What industry sectors tend to be better performers? Why? Even among the best performing industry sectors, some companies don't perform well. Why? On the contrary, some companies in poorly performing industries still do well. Why? For companies in the same industry sector, what factors could explain differences in company performance over the long term?

Discussion Topic 2:

Select any company from the Standard & Poor's 500. Select one or more activities in the company's value chain that would be candidates for relocation to another country. Provide a brief justification and examine the challenges you see in coordinating the global value chain after the proposed value-chain activities of your chosen company are set up in the new country.

In your discussions, cite examples when you describe theories from your reading and research. You may use examples from your organization or industry, current or recent newsmakers, or other reliable sources.
