YOUR PORTFOLIO
Learn the market by owning the whole economy.
Each industry receives the same starting allocation. You choose one company per industry and may only swap into another company from that same industry.

DIVERSIFICATION
Industry allocations
$1,500 is reserved for each industry. Fractional shares let the full allocation work.
COMPANY PASSPORTS
Research before you invest.
Compare recognizable companies within the same industry. Prices use the shared classroom market snapshot when available. The fallback values are used only if the shared feed is unavailable.
DECISION JOURNAL
Your reasoning matters more than guessing.
Every initial pick and stock swap becomes part of your investing record.

What is a stock?
A share is a small piece of ownership in a company.
Price ≠ company value
A $5 share is not automatically cheaper than a $100 share. The number of shares matters too.
Why prices move
Buyers and sellers react to results, news, expectations, products, competition and the economy.
Your strategy
Research companies, spread risk across industries, watch what changes and explain your decisions.
This simulation
You receive classroom money, choose companies by industry and track how those choices perform. No real money is involved.
Where this can go
Over several years, a business may grow, struggle, raise more money, buy competitors or change completely. Investors keep reassessing what its future may be worth.
DON'T GET FOOLED BY SHARE PRICE
Which company is worth more?
Company B has the lower stock price but the larger market value. One share's price alone does not tell you how valuable the whole company is.
