It has been pretty good and gives some good ribbing on the forums. Look it up on the forums we have done this a few times in the past.

I have found myself playing the stock market game for real as the result of additional responsibilities relating to the death of my father.  I don't find it fun....at all.  Scary as hell is more how I would describe it.

Let's do it again!!    Count me in!!  Timeframe?  Two months or three please.  One month is too short for trends.

I wonder is this the same kind of game that I played in high school, we're we were given x mount of money, and got to buy fact stocks but real compainy, if that makes sense.  My group was 2nd place out of our our class, until our stock crashed.

There's a bunch of people that are saying they want in, but only 6 players that have actually signed up. Get off your butts and sign up. Unless you're scared. :devil

they've been doing something right, out of the aforementioned mutuals, this one kicking butt in a somewhat frustrating up/down/a lot sideways market. Maybe their portfolio worth looking at for your game.

good luck, wish i had the time

Right out of the box last week my jump on Apple and Tesla tanked out of the box.   Hanging on to them for a bit though.

An interesting article I came across a few months back regarding the stock trade and how technology is affecting it.

Tibco Software is just killin me. I kept holding it after the drop thinking it would bounce back. It didn't. Too bad we don't have stop loss trades in this game.

One of the last times we did this AH Gamers I went with pharmaceuticals, health care, and lots of petro-stocks and got sent home broke.

Lots of "fun" stocks on now.
