Background Information
For students who want to or already have an interest in investing in the stock market.
We each manage a portfolio in a virtual stock simulator. Similar to something you may have done in an
accounting class.
We can divide into teams or play individually.

Directions for Stock Simulator (cont.)
Stocks must be over $1 (No penny stocks)
You each will have one portfolio reset
Buy, sell, and short different stocks to grow that $100,000.
