Goals:

Club Investment Log
We want to build a track record of each clubs investment performance, we require each club to record one investment every two weeks. It could be a profitable or a losing investment. The goal is to record an investment and review, why or why not was this investment successful. What was wrong about your thesis. This is done in order for your club members to learn from as well as all the other participating cubs. We will share our Investment log at the end of the competition.

The bigger picture is to compile each clubs investment log into one. The purpose of this is to get firms involved at to get them to sponsor future competitions like this. We show these logs to firms around our local area and they can see what we accomplished. This will intrigue them to get involved as firms want to get recognition among many schools.

Here are the instructions to create you investment log.

Create a document:
1) Give a short explanation of why you initiated the investment, what was your strategy?
2) What was your execution price and how many shares?
3)What was the outcome of the investment?
4) What your strategy successful?
5) What would you do differently next time to make this a better Investment?
