Welcome Investors!
This semester we are really going to get an education. First of all, even the most casual glance at today's headlines will see story upon story of financial turmoil. Go ahead, Google 'financial turmoil' and you'll find a lifetime of reading on the most important issue facing Americans today. Second of all, the market's volatility (vocab alert!) will definitely make for some interesting trading sessions over the next few months. Finally, I am eager to find out who among us can find the silver lining in all this turmoil and make some money!
Now remember: trading begins on October 6 for all classes! Get in there, get your hands dirty, make a few trades. Don't be shy, but be ready for some interesting results at first. When we meet as a class next week, we'll look at your portfolios, talk about some individual stocks and finally begin to take a deeper look at the world of finance.
Have fun! Remember: the money in your portfolios for the Stock Market Game is not real, but the knowledge you'll gain is priceless.
