This week in Economics class we began a stock market game. I decided to invest in FedEx Toyota, Rock Star Gaming, and Apple electronics. Right now I am slowly on the rise again. I was once in 7th place and now I am in 13th place. I’m not sure what exactly happened but if I did not sell Google my rank would probably be a lot worse than it is now. This assignment has helped me to realize how quickly and how often the value of a stock changes. This field does seem interesting and very exciting because these transactions affect millions of people throughout the world.
Yeah its amazing how fast the market fluctuates and how much it can affect your investment
ReplyDeleteI should have sold google. Anyway, I too think it is cool that so many people risk their money in the stock market.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you, this game has also helped me to realize how the market can change so quickly.
ReplyDeleteIt is interesting to watch the stocks. I also invested in Apple stocks right after the iOS 7 came out, the stocks went up but just about two days later they went down, which surprised me. I wonder what the new iPhones will bring to Apple.
ReplyDeleteThe market does change fast and it can cause you to loose a lot of money and it can also be very hard to understand.
ReplyDeleteI agree that if you do not seel some stocks your ranking will fall, but yononly need to seel them when theyre at a top point
ReplyDeleteYea, it seems that I can make $100 just as fast as I can lose it. Whenever I start to rise up, I quickly fall back down.
