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 are ranked 16th out of 95
Our three top holdings are ADSK at 440.26 up, UNH up 319.77, and AA for 103.65.
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.

  1. We feel your pains with the stocks that are tanking right now. It wouldn be wise to wait for those certain stocks to become positive and then sell them immediately. We were also looking to purchase ADSK.

  2. Glad your stocks are doing highly well compared to ours. Although your MHFI is pulling you down, i wouldnt sell it. The analyst are rating it a 2.0 which is closer to a strong buy rather than a strong sell. i would wait to sell and see if it makes you money.
