My Investments:
Ive invested in 18 stocks and I would like to talk about these five. Hyatt
Hotels Corp, DepoMed Inc., Pandora Media Inc., UnitedHealth Group Inc. and Waters
Corp.
I currently have 2100 shares in Hyatt Hotels and have lost around $900. I
invested in this company in the hope that the price of stocks would rise. In 52 weeks
the low has been $34.06 and the high had been $59.99. I bought my stocks at
$47.77 and it currently sits at around $47. I would like to see the stock go higher
before selling them as I have lost money with Hyatt Hotels. I plan on selling soon as
the price of these stocks is constantly fluctuating and I cannot see myself gaining
too much money from this stock.
I currently have 5500 shares in DepoMed and I have gained around $8,500. I
invested in this company because I saw that it was doing quite well and that a
couple of other players had invested in it. DepoMed is also a business which offers
pharmaceutical services, and I thought that that was a good business to invest in
since people will always need medications and doctors, this company would make
quite a bit of money. Plus medicine is quite expensive to buy so they will make more
money when they sell the medications. I plan on staying with this company as long
as the price of the stocks continues to climb.

I currently have 11000 shares in Pandora Media Inc. and have gained around
$13,000. I invested in this company because it is a company that offers music, and
a lot of people listen to music that they can buy online. I have made a lot money
with this company and I do not plan on selling until the stocks begin to lose their
value. This stock was not doing too well and then all of the sudden I started to rise
in value so I jumped at the chance to make some money, and it really paid off.
I currently have 700 shares in UnitedHealth Group Inc. and I have gained
around $2000. I invested in this company because I saw that the price of the stock
was rising and I wanted to try to make some money off it. UnitedHealth Group Inc. is
a company that offers a variety of health benefits to consumers. I wanted to invest
in this company because a lot of people have health benefits and I thought a lot of
people would buy this service. So for I have made quite a bit of money with these
stocks and I plan on keeping them until they start to lose value.
I currently have 400 shares in Waters Corp. and have lost around $400. I
invested in this company because when I first bought it, the stock value was on the
rise and I thought that it was going to do really well. A little while after buying it, it
stopped going up and started fluctuating. Its value has been fluctuating ever since
and I have been gaining a small amount of money and then I have lost a small
amount of money. I plan on selling this stock soon because all it is doing is
fluctuating and Im not losing any money and Im not gaining any money either so I
will sell it because there is no point in owning stocks that wont make you money.
Strategy:
My strategy in this game is to buy stocks on the rise and then sell them when
they start to lose their value. So far this is working for me as I have been ranked in
the top 5 for the past few weeks. The reason I have not sold any of the stocks that
are doing bad is because they were never doing good, so before I sell them I would
like for their values to come up a bit do that I do not lose a ton of money on them.
Sold Stocks:
I have not sold many stocks because I do not want to lose money on the ones
that are not doing very well. I try to sell them when the price goes up a little bit. The
ones that I have sold were doing very badly and they were constantly going down,
so finally I bit the bullet and took a huge loss. Fortunately, I had my other stocks
that were doing well so that I did not affect my ranking very much.
Ranking:
During this game, I usually ranked in the top 5 players. Sometimes I would
drop into the top 10 on bad days. Throughout the game I never when below the
10th ranked player.

Game 2

E.I. DuPount de Nemours & Co. (2000 Shares)
Fitbit Inc. (20000 Shares)
KB Home (10000 Shares)
Pandora Media Inc. (15000 Shares)
PayPal Holdings Inc. (5000 Shares)
VISA Inc. Cl A (1900 Shares)

MasterCard Inc. Cl A (Sold 1500 Shares)
United States Steel Corp. (Sold 15000 Shares)
Micron Technology Inc. (Sold 15000 Shares
Dollar General Corp. (Sold 2000 Shares)
My Investments:
Ive invested in 12 stocks and I would like to talk about the following five.
Apple Inc. Pandora Media Inc. KB Home, PayPal Holdings Inc. and Bank of Montreal.
I previously had owned 7000 shares in Apple Inc. I had lost over $ 5,000.
Invested in this company because I saw that many other players in the game had
invested in it and were making a lot of money from it. I had invested about 3000
stocks and saw that I was making quite a bit of money, so I invested in more stocks
and then more. I was making over $8,000 until the stock started to go down. I didnt
think that I was going to keep going down because it had been doing so well for so
long. By the time I noticed that I was losing money, I had already lost over $5,000.
When I found out I sold the stocks and lost a lot of money. When I bought the stocks
for the first time they were priced at $99.85, and the second time I bought them,
they were priced at $100.22, and the third time I bought them, and they were
priced at $100.48. When I sold the stocks they were the price had fallen to $97.19,
even lower than the first time I invested.
I currently own 15000 shares in Pandora Media Inc. I have made over $ 9,000.
I invested in this company because I had done so in my previous game and was
making a lot of money with them. When I bought them they were priced at $11.35
and they are now priced at $11.98. I plan on selling these stocks soon because I
have noticed that their value has been slowly declining. At 12:30 on June 8th, the
stock reached a price of $12.08 and has been going down. At one point the value of

the stock was $22.60. Before I lose too much money, I will sell these stocks and take
the money that Ive made with them.

I previously had owned 10000 shares in KB Home, I have made over $7,000. I
invested in this company because I had saw that the price of the stock had been
rising. I invested in the stock and made quite a bit of money. When I bought the
stocks they were valued at $13.85 and when I sold them at the end of the game
they were valued at $14.57. If the game had not ended I would still be invested in
this stock because their value still was not going down.

I previously had owned 5000 shares in PayPal Holdings Inc. I had lost over
$10,000 with this stock. I thought that I would invest in these stocks because I
thought that PayPal was a very good company and that I was doing well. I did not do
any research on it before I invested in them. I regret making that decision because
it cost me a lot of money. My PayPal stocks were never doing well but I always
assumed that their value would begin to climb again, however this was not the
case. When I first invested in PayPal, the stocks were valued at $37.97 and when I
sold the stocks they were valued at $37.25. It is really crazy how much a few cents
and lower the amount of money you lose or gain with a stock.
I had previously owned 1900 shares in Bank of Montreal, I had lost quite a bit
of money. I wanted to invest in the Bank of Montreal because I had owned these
stocks in the previous game. During the other game they were doing well and I was
gaining a lot of money from them. However this time around, the value of the stocks
just seemed to fluctuate a lot. Some days it would say that I had made $5,000 with
the stock and then the next day it would say that I lost $5,000 with the stock. I
wasnt losing or gaining much money with this stock so I decided to sell them.
Strategy:
My strategy during this game was to buy low and sell high. Towards the end
of the game I started to realize that this was not working for me. I was not
monitoring the stocks enough to be able to buy and sell at the appropriate times. I
lost this game because of that reason. I was not able to watch and see when the
stocks were their highest before their value would start to decline. If I were to play
this game again, I would make sure to pay closer attention to the stocks.
Sold Stocks:
During this game I sold stocks because they were not doing very well. I
wanted to sell them before they caused me to lose a lot of money. I also sold some
stocks that were high. I sold them because I had made a lot of money with them
and I did not want to run the risk of losing that money.

Ranking:
My ranking during this game was not as high as the last time. I finished the
game in rank 13. I was never ranked over the 10th rank during this game and
sometimes I was ranked close to last place. I had a hard time finding stocks that
were good enough to not lose money.
