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.

Rank 41
Top stocks
CAT $80.39/$80.03/($71.18)
FOX $33.29/$32.88/($45.06)
HOG $61.50/$60.74/($151.78)
 Even though our top stocks are in the red others are still doing well. We are unsure why these stocks are bad but we are confident that these stocks will do better. All of our analysts opinions are still between 1 and 3. We are going to wait it out because we haven't lost a lot of money on these stocks. All of their yearly estimates predict the stock will go up. If our top stocks gaining money we of course feel better about these stocks. We believe that Harley Davidson will do better because the weather is getting nice and people will start to buy more motorcycles.

  1. I agree with you guys about holding on to your stocks that aren't doing that well right now. Since they have a yearly target estimate that's predicting them to go up they should start going up soon. I also agree about the Harley Davidson going up because of the weather getting nice.

  2. It seems like most stocks are losing money, so that's nothing to worry about. Holding onto your stocks seems like the best option because we are only two weeks into the game and a lot could change. You're right about Harley Davidson, it should be heading upwards.

  4. I think everyone's stocks are doing bad at this point so it isn't a big deal. I would suggest on waiting till the weather got nice and seeing what your stocks do then, if they still are down then maybe try something new.
