MPRA Paper from  University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: Given the fact that timber is neither traded as commodity nor is any timber ETF available in India, this paper contains the risk-return profiles of the traded timbers stocks and exploring the plausibility of creating a timber ETF. An important finding here is that it is better to invest in a single stock than in a portfolio and therefore the question of forming a timber ETF does not arise here.
