Research question formulation and focus

Research methodology
Criteria Feedback
Your research question is clearly defined, specific, and kept in view throughout the investigation.
You choose methods and tools that fit the topic and help organise the argument logically.
Your topic is communicated clearly, with the reader able to follow the strategic purpose of the investigation.
The method is described more fully than it is carried out, so the investigation would be stronger with more visible implementation.
The strategic angle could be sharpened further by making the final decision process more concrete.
A few places would benefit from clearer explanation of how each analytical tool directly answers the question.

Use of terminology and concepts
Criteria Feedback
You show secure understanding of key finance ideas such as ETFs, diversification, risk, return, variance, covariance, and efficient frontiers.
You use terminology accurately and consistently in a way that supports the argument rather than distracting from it.
Your source material is generally relevant and is applied in a way that matches the purpose of the investigation.
The discussion would be stronger if you linked more of the theory to ARK’s specific business context and decision-making needs.
Some of the knowledge remains more conceptual than demonstrated through your own worked application.
A few claims would benefit from more direct evidence drawn from your analysis rather than from explanation alone.
