Hello! If you're going to create a portfolio, you'll have to develop a policy, approach and strategy. If you're just picking stocks, read the financial papers.

Thanks & regards
 

you're gonna need a phd. and then find the square root

Short FAS and long FAZ, and hold these positions long term.

By the end of the school year, I GUARANTEE you will have the largest portfolio.

 

Thanks everyone! I forgot to mention, the simulator is only lasting 3 months. I know this is a very short time frame, should this change our strategy at all?
