Evaluation process was conducted in two stages, first during the period 2002 to 2011 using short time-series regressions, risk-adjustment coefficients were calculated at three levels: firm, industry and selected portfolios and the coefficients in the second stage along with other required data in the research model used to predict the stock price for the year 2012. The results show good performance of applying the model to predict the stock price of listed companies in Tehran Stock Exchange.
