Stock market game

[no name]

Simple game... You are given 10,000 dollars (not 10000 shares). You have to spend that money on stocks. Real companies, real prices. You have to buy 3 different stocks, spending a minimum of 2000 on one stock. We pick a date to buy say March 1st and sell on March 31st. See who made the most money. I know nothing of the market but thought this might be a good way to learn a little. Got the idea from the stock market thread in NPR. Maybe someone would know good site to view stocks and we can start something??

Couldn't we just write a story about the stock market?

"I was hanging low that night and looking to buy high. She was classy. A real blue-chip chippy screaming for action. I said I had porkbellies ready to go. She looked down at me and said she was all about light sweet crude ..."

My Greek stock was rising. My T-bills were expanding faster than my Y-fronts. I was breaking 13000!

... oh ... Oh ... OH ...

We really need to get another story going. Redwill with your submission i can see you are chomping at the bit. Maybe we sould just continue the ulu saga.

" 'Looks like I may need a bailout' she said, pursing her lips, 'I didn't take you for one to sell short'. "
