Investing is the art of buying and selling in hopes of a return. The amount of people who invest in the stock market with little to no knowledge of the stock market is as high as ever. I want people to be confident in their ability to invest in the stock market.

During semester one we will be participating the Wharton Global High School Investment Competition while also learning about investing with common sense by implementing core principals that allow us to buy stocks with common sense.

I hope by the end of semester one that people will be able to make their own unique profitable strategy. During semester two we will be participating in as many investing competitions as possible.

During semester two we will participate in several investing competitions that base their winners on who has the best long term investing strategy. These competitions include (but are not limited to):

• Yis global stock pitch 

• Global Teen and Investment Buisness Competition 

• Arkansas Tech University Investing Competition 

Every year, the Wharton Global High School Investment Competition focuses on a new case study and devise unique and creative strategies in a team setting to meet someone's short and long term goals. Each team gets $100,000 in a virtual stock market to invest in different stocks to develop the best plan. 

Investment Club is a relatively new section of Econ Team, so we all will learn together, no matter how much experience you have!
