Stock Market Contest Game - How Do YOU Do?

Monday, July 30, 2012


Stock Market Contest Game
-
How Do YOU Do?



This is free to participate in - you are never required to pay to play.  Anyone can join (pass this on to your friends).  The stock market results will be updated on a "live" basis. (When the market is closed, the ups and downs will not be updated.)  The leaderboard may be viewed on my "How Do YOU Do?" posting on my blog:  http://shirleyis.blogspot.com/2012/07/stock-market-contest-game-how-do-you-do.html

Now you can manage your own "virtual" stock portfolio,  you're given an initial $1,000,000 of virtual investment money that you can buy, trade or sell with and you can see how you would've made out if you had invested with real money. Let your friends know about this and you can compare how you do against each other.  It's fun to see how much money you would have made if you really invested.  You can contact other investors that are out-performing you and ask how they're deciding what to invest in.   This is based on the actual daily S&P 500 and only supports major exchanges (NASDAQ, NYSE, etc.).  If your "virtual" portfolio that you create and upkeep beats the S&P 500 over a full month, you can win actual cash from updown.com, the online Stock Market Game.  It is free to join, there is no fee or cost.  (I've been playing this since April of 2009 and from my initial $1,000,000,  I'm now at $1,300,000+, I can now invest $300,000 more if I want.  (Might as well, why have money sitting around that isn't working and growing for you?)  If your earnings are at a negative amount, you may sell some of your stock to gain enough money to invest into a new stock of your choice, but without a positive gain showing, you can't invest more than what you already have.

This current  contest will run from July 30, 2012 through October 30, 2012.   The deadline for entering is August 20, 2012.  If you miss the August 20th cutoff date, you may still enter, but you won't be entered till the next contest, which will run from October 30, 2012 through January 30, 2013.

Remember this is just for fun, but it can be a learning experience for you!  Good fortune to you and don't forget to check your standings at least once a month.  Bookmark this page!
