What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an opportunity where I can apply my economics foundation to analyze financial markets and build econometric models. I want to work with data, produce clear research reports, and grow my skills in risk-aware decision-making.

I’m an Economics undergraduate with strong analytical and research skills, specializing in financial markets, development economics, and econometrics. I enjoy turning raw data into clear conclusions through regression modeling, careful interpretation, and well-structured reporting.

Through Pakistan Stock Market Analysis & Trading Simulation (PSX), I managed a PKR 1,000,000 portfolio and focused on sector analysis, macro trends, and risk management to guide buy/sell decisions. I used financial ratios like P/E and P/B alongside macroeconomic indicators (interest rates, oil prices) and market sentiment to justify trades and manage downside with diversification, stop-loss strategies, and event-driven decision-making.

I also built an econometric time-series regression model (1975–2024 data) analyzing the impact of FDI and exports on GDP using EViews. I apply statistical diagnostics such as VIF and autocorrelation tests (Durbin-Watson, LM Test), perform model validation, and use data cleaning and visualization to identify trends and patterns that support meaningful economic insights.
