Stock Market Game.....crap

bacalaoboy · 02-6-2007, 08:59 PM

any one doing the SMG(stock market game) now, or have done it? I heard its nationwide, so i wonder if anyone else is doing it. Although we're 2nd in our region, and first in our school, i hate it. its not cool. help.

I did that a couple years ago in school. It sucked.

It's to bad my school does not have it. The stock market is the pulse of the economy, and richer than any gold mine....

I played... about 6 years ago. I don't remember much else.

Just pull out all of your money before the great depression ;D

What you want to do is invest heavy right after the market crashes. The people who did that were the ones who got really rich.

I remeber doing this in high school. I thought it was pretty fun. I go to do it twice, one for Money and Banking, and the other for a Finance class. I believe the top prize was a trip to New York or something. Some group in my class won that.

thats a big part of what started the great depression...
not a good idea for everyone to pull all of their money out at once

I'm starting this tomorrow. We barely even get graded on money, we just need 35+ transactions in 3 weeks.

Did it

There was like a 650% increase in China Auto's stock price. A group invested most of their money in that group as a joke. Guess who won.

PunkNJunk · 02-6-2007, 09:47 PM

btw i have no idea what the hell you guys are talkin about
haha

popcorn121 · 02-6-2007, 10:02 PM

Lol, that game sucked.
So stupid. I did it in school last year...

Well another thing to take into interest is that you should leave your money in whatever you invested in. The NUMBER ONE mistake is that people take out their money too quickly. In the end result, never make any money.

We were just given ten thousand bucks to invest in any three companies. I invested in pharmaceuticals and D.R. Horton homes and made a nice chunk of change, around 100% profit.

But my friend invested in stocks whose tickers spelled a word. EASY, HARD, and PLUS, all penny stocks. PLUS tanked very soon, HARD did all right, but EASY made him well over a hundred grand, about 1170% profit.

I remember doing this. I did pretty well, but I agree it wasn't that fun.
Then again it's simulating a job, and work is often not fun.

Apparently some kid a few years ago tried Enron right before it died...
