Another purpose of the study is to test the availability of clustering analysis methods to create an efficient portfolio of stocks. For these purposes, a total of 69 stocks were clustered by using Ward method as a hierarchical clustering method, K-Means method as a non-hierarchical clustering method, and two-step clustering (hybrid) method.
