Wall Street: The Simulation

The Stock Market Simulation is a 10-week example of Wall Street trading that has become a popular teaching tool for grades four through 12.

Classes are divided into teams of three or four students who invest a hypothetical $100,000 in common stocks. The most recent game started Oct. 7.

Approximately 125 to 150 Hawai'i teams from eight high schools and one elementary school are playing the current program. Listed here are results for some of the top teams' investment returns for the week ended Dec. 6.

For more information on the program, www.hawaiisms.com, or www.nationalsms.com.
