This research paper analyzed the stock prices of Mongolia Stock Exchange TOP 20 index from 1 January 2012 to 31 December 2016, and estimated the return rate of these stocks. A hierarchical clustering was created from the correlation matrix of stock returns. From this clustering five stocks were selected for the portfolio construction and the rate of return was maximized using the Modern Portfolio Theory developed by Harry Markowitz. The weight of each stock in the portfolio was calculated for maximization the return rate of the portfolio, and 12 portfolios were constructed from these five stocks. An investor can select appropriate one of these portfolios in accordance with his or her risk and return characteristics.

The experimental investigation and analysis were carried on metal bellows made of 304 stainless steel tubes. FEM analysis using ANSYS was done by varying the manufacturing parameters of bellows, such as internal pressure and die stroke to get an optimum crown diameter of the bellows. An experimental investigation in the form of an optimization is done by varying the manufacturing parameters of metal bellows. Hardness test, forming height vs thickness distribution and micro structure analysis were done to study the hydroforming process.
