Questions related to Financial Statement Analysis
I am a bachelor's student doing my degree in Finance and Economics. Since it is my last year I got to find a bachelor's thesis topic. I don't wanna be "that guy" but I really don't see a point of doing some overdone topics just for easy results. I want to do something that is hot and relatively recent. So far I picked up my interest areas and tried to describe my knowledge in areas. What I would like to ask from you is helping me to try to narrow my general topics or suggest me some materials on the topics I have chosen or just suggesting any other topic that may be more suitable because of some reasons. I will appreciate any help that anyone can provide.
Areas of interest: Finance & Economics.
Knowledge:
Finance: risk management, valuation of debts and assets, financial statement analysis, corporate finance.
Economics: mostly theories from the college textbook. Never done some deep analysis. Listen to Freakonomics podcasts.
Programming: data analysis with python (numpy, and pandas).
So far excited topics:
1. IPO for creators: trading shares of content (something like NFTs but for general content)
2. Modeling the football players' salary/market price.
3. Our society is slowly turning into subscription economy.
If you need any more clarifications I would love to provide info.
