Today in class we will be starting a new project in which we will take a look at the stock market and actually hold our own mock stock market in our classroom…in order to accomplish this task we will need to use the CNN Money website to research stock. You will be using the suggested stocks that I give you in class, also listed below, and research the stocks and find 3-5 companies that you are interested in investing in.

• AAPL Apple Inc
• AMZN Amazon.com Inc
• ATVI Activision Blizzard Inc
• C Citigroup Inc
• CMCSA Comcast Corp
• CSCO Cisco Systems Inc
• DDS DillardS Inc
• DELL Dell Inc
• DIS Walt Disney Co
• EBAY eBay Inc
• FFBHD First Federal Bancshares of Ar
• FOSL Fossil Inc
• GOOG Google Inc
• GPS Gap Inc
• INTC Intel Corp
• JBHT J B Hunt Transport Services In
• JNJ Johnson & Johnson
• MCD McDonalds Corp
• MSFT Microsoft Corp
• NFLX Netflix Inc
• ORCL Oracle Corp
• PCLN Priceline.com Inc
• SIRI Sirius XM Radio Inc
• TSN Tyson Foods Inc
• WMT Wal-Mart Stores Inc
• YHOO Yahoo! Inc
• SNE Sony Corp

Once we have selected 3-5 companies you will be given $1,000 to invest in these companies how every you wish…you may also save some money and choose not to invest all your money with the opportunity to buy or sell in later days to come. So go ahead and start your greed…the Wall Street will be the name of the game for the next 10 days.

Note – students, you can also use the NASDAQ website to view trends of companies as well.
