A Diverse Portfolio Wins

Apple was our largest gainer. Google was our second largest gainer. RIMM was up $ a share at one point; we should have sold it. We owned Tiffany, but sold it when it took us to last place.

The Plan We brainstormed about products and services that were currently being used in the market. –Technology –Healthcare –Apparel/Clothing

The Plan We then looked up the stocks we thought would yield us the largest returns. –We used finance.yahoo.com, CNBC, and the Chicago Tribune.

Sample Research and Data Analysis As of January 9, 2008, Google was at a share.

What We Learned 1.Stocks are unpredictable and risky. 2.Working in teams made it easy for everyone to create a diverse portfolio. 3.Research is very important to selecting profitable stocks. 4.At least two of our team members are more interested in stocks and invest since playing the game.

Thank You Team Coach – Mr. Scott L. Steward
