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.

Cash Balance-$16,164.16
Portfolio Equity-$98,822.18
Buying power-$65,576.03
Rank-44
Top Accounts-AEO, $16.56, $17.08, $104,21
GLT, $26.97, $27.53, $84.45
CVX, $102.11, $104.98, $71.72
We feel as though or portfolio isn't doing terrible but defiantly could be doing better. Our AEO and GLT are our best stock right at this moment, we think this is happening because of the nice weather and people going out and shopping  for new clothes. We have read that the DOW has been up so most of the stocks are up which would contribute to our success. FB is our worst stock at this point. We feel as though this is because of twitter and other social media websites taking over. They have said that the facebook stock will take a hit due to the lack of users but we are taking that gamble.
Our Yearly targets for all our stocks are above what they are currently at. The analysts are predicting that they will go up soon and that we will have to just sit and wait for it to happen. I agree with them because they have more knowledge than me on this stuff. We need people to go out and spend there money to help the economy which will bring our stocks up to make us feel comfortable.
