Stock Market Game Blog

This semester, you will be playing the Stock Market Game and managing a $100,000 investment portfolio with your partner. Each week, you will reflect on how your portfolio performed and provide your thoughts in a blog post that your teacher, classmates, and others will be able to read and respond to.


This will give you a chance to offer and ask for advice and/or warnings about certain investments, provide your reactions to market activity and news that has occurred over the week, and indicate your hopes and predictions regarding where the markets (and your specific investments in the SMG) are heading.

Our total cash balance is 
$52,937.88

Our total portfolio equity is 
$100,818.88

Our buying power is +
$103,347.32

We are ranked 15/97 in the region.

Our top three account holdings are:
SLB bought for $84 per share is currently $94.28 per share and we have gained $513.91
BHI bought for $60.88 per share is currently $68.75 per share and we have gained $236.02
BHI bought for $63.24 per share is currently $68.75 per share and we have gained $275.69

I am not happy with our portfolio because HSY is costing us $307.90 and HUM is costing us $489.54. Though I am happy about SLB gaining us $513.91.

I think we will have to start selling stocks. As soon as HSY and HUM start gaining money I think we will have to sell the immediately. With the contest ending soon we will have to sell some of the stocks gaining us money before they can dip down.

CVX-110.79, 111.73, 43.02
We feel awful about our portfolio at this current time. Whatever we seem to be doing isn’t helping one bit at all. CVX is our only good stock that has been performing well the whole time we’ve been playing this game. We haven’t really heard any news on why our stocks are doing badly and don’t think anyone has the right answer. KORS is our worst performing stock and that has been down ever since we bought it. We are about to sell all our stocks and move on.

We would like to see at least half of our portfolio in the positive money but don’t think that will ever happen. We haven’t looked at what the analysts are saying because they’ve been wrong every time to this point. Once our stocks go up a bit I think we will sell them.

Our portfolio is doing alright at this time, but we thought we would be doing better after selling our one stock. Since it was up about $20 we thought that would boost us pretty good but I guess since we only had 45 shares of it because it was a very expensive stock, we didn't make that much off of it. We are still doing alright in our ranking, but since last week we dropped back about 10 spaces.
There's not much that we would change, it just depends if the DOW is up or down for the day and that moves us around. Several of of stocks have been positive almost the entire time since we bought them, but other fluctuate greatly, and we would like to see more steady stocks.

We want our 3 share holding gaining us money instead of losing money. We are going to try buy another share so we can get our ranking up. We hope that our ranking go up, so we can get an iPad mini.

I am not feeling that good about our portfolio right now. There are only a few weeks left and Actavis and Chipotle just keep going down. I am not really sure why these stocks are performing so poorly because they both have very high yearly target estimates. Luckily Regeneron and DST Systems are still doing very well.

Right now the thing I would want to see most is Actavis and Chipotle go up before the game is over. If this would happen our ranking would definitely increase dramatically. The target estimate for Actavis is about $340 and the target estimate for Chipotle is about $740. I would also like to see our good investments like Regeneron and DST Systems continue to go up.

Our stocks are still performing well. We still have money to spend so we are looking into more stocks to buy into. We don't have stocks gaining us a lot of money but they are making us some. We don't plan on selling any stocks yet because we think our stocks will continue to increase.

doing well.

We feel great about our stocks they are doing amazing I would recommend everyone top buy those stocks. They are doing so well because people are starting to learn about them and their potential.  We have two stocks that are negative but only by hundreds while we have 3 stocks in the thousands. I would like to see more money and our stocks to rise.

We are slowly starting to increase our rank and move up, but we are still not at where we were when we first started out. We are glad we are making more money on a majority of our stocks, but we have one, DD, that we are losing over a thousand dollars in. This stock is weighing us down tremendously as some of our other stocks are finally starting to give us hope. We hope that the DOW continues to stay up a majority of the time, since it seems to have a major impact on our stock performance. It seems like we bought DD at the wrong time, at a higher price than it has been. We bought this stock on accident, but were told to keep it to see what happens. We would like to see a miracle happen with this stock or at least a dramatic drop in the amount we are losing. Analysts say we should hold on to this stock. We don't know if we should continue to listen to them since we are continuously losing a drastic amount and since the yearly target estimate is lower than what we bought it at.

I feel pretty good at this point we're in forth place and still making money. I'm just not sure when to sell. We're making a lot of money from four companies all over $100, i'm just not sure when i should sell. As long as they keep making money we'll be fine but if anyone of them decides to drop we'll be in trouble again. we have one stock SAM it keeps going down. At first we were up like $300 now i can't seem to get it out of the red. I would like to see SAM and GOOG go up they're where were losing the most money. We're making a couple of dollars here and there from are other stocks i would like to see them go up and stay up.

8. We feel pretty bad about our portfolio at this time. Our ranking is absolutely pitiful. We only have about 

four or five stocks that are making us money. Even those stocks are not making us very much money. We are 
thinking about selling some pretty soon to get them off our hands and hopefully make some money. Our best
stock is Under Armour. It is making us almost 170 dollars. We will probably try to sell RUSHA and SPLS.

9. We would like to see our stocks actually MAKE MONEY!!! Our ranking has not gone down in weeks. We are
hoping to see FELIX make us money sometime in the near future because we are not losing too much on it right
now. We also hope to get rid of DD because it is costing us a ton of money, almost 300 dollars.We hope to see
AEO make us a little more money. The yearly target rate is about twenty dollars more than what we are making
off of it now.

We are doing alot better than we have been in our portfolio. We went up about 30 spots in the ranking and are doing much better with our stocks being positive. Our top holding was REGN and we were making nearly $800 on it, but we sold it today. It was up nearly $20 from our buying price.
We would like to see our ranking go up a little more as a result of selling REGN. We only had 40 holdings because of how expensive of a stock it was, but we are hoping it is enough to give us a little bit of a boost.

We feel that our portfolio is recovering from the recent downfall we had experienced a couple of 
weeks ago. REGN is performing the best right now for us because they are experimenting with 
many new drugs that can become beneficial to a lot of people. ACT is our biggest loser currently
and is waiting for a FDA approval of a new obesity drug. With the approval of a drug like
that, it could directly affect our losses immediately. 
Our yearly target estimates are still pretty high for all of our stocks. The analysts are predicting for our
stocks to bounce back up. We agree with the analysts because we are hoping for our portfolio
to rebound from the recent drop.

At this time I feel like our sustainability challenge portfolio is doing very well compared to our  last venture. The majority of our stocks are up by at least 2% showing very good promise for our growing unrealized gains. MHFI is pulling us down by about a hundred dollars though and as soon as it turns profitable, it will be sold. I would like to buy a few more stocks with the equity gained from our sold ventures that are failing right now.

Our top stocked would be the ones above. Are lowest stocks are WWE, KORS, and Q. We are unsure why these stocks are not preforming well. We hope that these three stocks will increase and eventually make us a profit. We might possibly sell SNE because we don't know if it can go any higher that it already has. We hoep that WWE will soon start to preform and believe it will because at the end of the month there is a big fight. We are open to any suggestions.

Ho do I feel about my portfolio?
I am actually pretty happy about my portfolio. It is doing better than what it was last week. Overall I believe we can do better. We just have to but the right stocks to bump up the amount of money we are interested in. 
What changes? 
I would like to see all of our stocks to go up at least $100.00 dollars. I want to start taking an interest into all the stocks than I can.

We would like to see our total equity go up and our ranking as well. Our ranking is slowly getting better, we were 54 or 55 out of 65 a week or two ago so we are slowly improving. Also our yearly target estimates are very high and we are hoping that we have enough time to get close to those estimates. The stocks that we have are very close to be positive but they just have not gone positive yet. We just need time to see if our investments work out.

We are feeling pretty good about our portfolio right now. Regeneron and DST Systems are doing really well right now. They are probably doing well because of the new products that they are coming out with. Actavis is still doing really poorly.

Right now we would really like to see Actavis go up. It is our worst stock and is losing us almost $1,500. It is suppose to go up around $40 more from where it is now this year. We just hope it goes up before the Stock Market Game is over. Chipotle has started going up though and is almost positive. We would like to see it continue to go up and see the same thing happen to our other stocks that aren't doing that well.

We feel that the majority of our stocks aren't doing very well. We are only making money on 2 stocks really, out of the many that we've bought. Our best stock is AMBA, because it has already exceeded it's one year target that was set in place before we bought it. This could be occurring due to the DOW being up.
DD and REGN are doing the worst. We are losing $935.35 on DD and $$633.94 on REGN. We believe this is happening because they haven't reached their yearly target estimates. REGN is down right now. DD experienced a drop for a few days, but now it is starting to increase. REGN is down but showing a gradual increase towards the yearly target estimate.
We expected these stocks to be 2 of our best stocks and they are failing to do so. We hope this will change in the near future as a result to this gradual increase. Analysis say that this is a strong buy now. We believe we may hold on to this because it's starting to do better now. Analysis say that DD is a stock that we should hold on to. We want to hold on to this because we still have hope that it will reach it's yearly target estimate.

Our stocks have done better over the past week. I think all stocks had a bit of an increase. but i think our stocks are also doing better because of the weather changing and influencing our stocks.

We are still waiting on our stocks to increase. Hopefully with the warmer weather the stocks will continue to rise. They are stocks that will do better in the nicer weather. We are planning on keeping all of our stocks until they make us some money.

Our portfolio isn't doing well, I'm looking to sell Nike and buy other stocks soon.
We would like to see our portfolio to eventually be above 100,000 in total equity.

We feel a little unsure about or portfolio at this time. We aren't sure why our stocks are down as much as they are. Our only stocks that are preforming in the positive are American Eagle and CVX. We arent sure why our stocks are performing this badly, maybe because the economy is down and might pick back up as summer comes around. Facebook and KORS are our worst preforming stocks right now, we are losing a total of 850 dollars on those stocks alone. We believe this is happening because other social media sites are more popular and people aren't buying jewelry at this time.

We would like to see our portfolio come back up into the positive as everyone else would. Our yearly targets are all way above what the price of shares are going for now so we expect to see them rise in the near future. I agree with what the analysts are predicting only because they know more than what i know about stocks and the economy at this time. We will need to see at least half of our current stocks to be in the positive numbers for us to feel more confident.

8. We feel okay about our portfolio this time. Our ranking is pretty terrible. American Eagle is performing really well for us and is our top holding. We only have two stocks that are making us money. We are surprised that Apple is never doing too well because it is so popular. Facebook is still doing terrible which is disappointing. Hopefully the dow will be down soon so we will make money.
9. We would like to see more stocks hit the positive. We would like to spend the rest of our money soon. Does anyone have any good suggestions on what to buy? We hope that our outdoorsy stocks will rise once the weather starts getting nice. We also might want to sell some of our stocks soon. Is it a good time to sell?

Our portfolio is not doing too well right now because the stocks that we invested in are long term stocks that slowly increase over a long period of time.
They are not positive right now because the market has its ups and downs. 
REGN is a biotech stock that Jim Cramer has recommended to buy into and hold for the "long haul". 
Our only hope at this point is for the biotech stocks to bounce back up and bring us out of this red slump. 

Just like everyone else we are hoping for our stocks to finally go positive again so then we can compete with everyone again.
Most of our stocks are predicted to rise about $40 or more by the end of the year but right now they're in a slump.
Analysts predict, as a low 1yr est. to be $30+. I agree with the analysts because if it does happen then our portfolio will finally start to make a profit.
Specifically in our portfolio, Actavis needs to rebound so then we can sell it without taking a loss.

I feel A LOT better about our sustainability portfolio than our regular portfolio. We actually have stocks that are making us money instead of robbing all of our cash. I think we made better choices in this one and were smarter with are money and it has showed big time.
I would like to maybe sell one of our stocks that is doing pretty bad, but only if it turns out to be a good sell in a week or two. We have some room still for a couple more stocks so filling them up will be on our list to do as well.

I think that the stocks are way better this time and most are in the positives by quite a lot.
I would like to see the last 2 stocks that are a few hundred in the negative go into the positive a bit so they can be sold off.

PEPSI-  STARBUCKS-  APPLE-
Our stocks and spirit are very low. The IRS came for my house yesterday. I am now living in a box and dear goodness I miss my wife. All i have is 14.87$ to my name and many stocks that have lost me so much money. Pepsi is my final hope, I need this to keep rising. All other stocks are as low as my spirit.

I would like to see my stocks rise so that I can get back to living in a home and not cardboard boxes. 
I hope and I pray that my life turns around.

Harley and I feel that our portfolio is doing wonderful because we are not losing money but gaining it. A stock that we would like to see better is WWE. We believe WWE will go up because at the end of the month there is a pay-per-view. The changes we would like to see happen are that our stocks would reach the target estimate value. We still agree with the anaylists opinion. For us to be more confident our stocks value in the red and need to get close to zero or gain more.Overall we see in the near future that out stocks will begin to rise.
