Stock Market Game Simulation
2010-2011

The Stock Market Game is a ten-week simulation in which students are given a hypothetical $100,000 dollars to invest in the stock market.  Students must have at least five separate stocks and/or mutual funds at the end of the simulation, so research and diversification are crucial for success.  Top state winners are given cash awards.

To register for the Stock Market Game, go to the SMG webpage, www.stockmarketgame.org, and click on the link in the upper right hand corner of the page labeled ‘Registration.’  Follow the instructions to complete your registration.
