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.

2. PA_38_ZZ903
3. $12,824.88
4. $98,114.38
5. $61,882.07
6. 54 out of 56
7. Apple purchase price when we bought was 127.38, its current is 124.24, our current unrealized gain/loss is -2.34. Starbucks purchase price was 98.27, currently it is 95.39, gain/loss -3.25. Tesla purchase price was 204.88, its currently 190.41, current gain/loss -7.06.
8. Our portfolio is currently killing due to du Pont and Tesla. Starbucks, our second buy, is the only one getting us money at the realized gain/loss at 0.05. Tesla dropped because of their cars having ignition problems. Du Pont is a mystery and in all a bad buy.

9. We would like to see Tesla go above 205 so we can sell no matter what, but still make some money. Once the Dow goes back up, our first Starbucks buy will finally go back up. But all in all We would like to see our stocks go back up.

    Wow, you guys went from 4th to 54th in one week! It's crazy how fast the market can change. We are also ranked poorly. We are planning on holding onto our stocks even though they are negative. Hopefully they recover soon. Don't sell any of your stocks right now.

    I see you have bought Apple. I recommend holding on to Apple but sell Starbucks and Telsa when they are up. And if you have money left i also recommend looking into REGN.
