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.

Total Cash Balance $14,231.80
Total Equity $98,274.00
Buying Power $63,368.80
Ranking 53
Top Holdings 1) Facebook, bought for $79.68 per share, current price $81.67 per share, unrealized gain $198.61
2) Snyder-Lance, bought for $30.29 per share, current price $32.23 per share, unrealized gain $194.01
3) Harley Davidson, bought for $59.28 per share, current price $60.28 per share, unrealized gain $20.01

We could feel better about our stocks right now. The three we have listed above are the only ones making us money, and they are slowly dropping too. All the rest of our stocks are doing bad.

I would like to see our top three stocks go back up, as well as the rest of our stocks. Facebook was doing great, but now its starting to go down. It seems like most stocks are going down.

  1. Maybe a good idea would be to expand your choices. You shouldn't be so scared to hold on to all of your money.

  2. I think you should buy more stocks. Even though they could possibly make you more money you could find stocks that can get you even more money.

  4. Your top 3 stocks seem to be doing well. We would suggest hold onto Harley Davidson because we think motorcycle sells will spike because of the nice weather. We would recommend that you buy Sony stock because they seem to be doing well.

  6. We agree with the other comments made. You and your partner should look to invest in more of a variety of stocks. Broaden your horizons and explore the stock market more in depth.
