literacy, and minimum capital requirements on students' enthusiasm
for stock investments. It focuses on students from the 2020 and 2021
Bachelor of Accounting classes at the Faculty of Economics and
Business, Udayana University. A purposive sampling method was
employed to choose 250 participants. The analysis utilized multiple
linear regression. Results show that investment knowledge, financial
literacy, and minimum capital requirements significantly enhance
students' interest in stock investments, supporting the Theory of
Planned Behavior's relevance in understanding investment-related
student behaviors.
