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.

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.
