candy stocks
From the moment i walked into the room it was loud. the two projectors were the only sorce of light we had. candy was scattered on the ground and we werent able to step on it. with no room to walk we made our way to a table all 6 groups. when he told us to pick up the candy everyone was everywhere with a lot of yelling and scrambling. i was looking for the highest stocks (candy) with the most value. i think because of my efforts we won with alot of money. some of the smaller stocks we had a lot of so that made it a little better too. with all of the different candy that we had made it to where we werent just stuck on one thing and we had more chance to make more money. all in all i think my group did pretty well with seeing on how the stocks went and how much money we had at the time and how to save our money so we were the winners in the end!!!

occupy wall street
i am for the occupy wallstreet becuse the goverment isnt responsible for us having jobs or giving us jobs. we are the ones who have to go out and find jobs or look for a way to make money. the people that protest that dont have jobs seem like they arent even trying hard enough to find it. i found a job and im 16 its not impossible its hard but not impossible.

journal- this week im choosing dell. i like dell because they have great computers and i have a dell laptop. they have competition with Apple's computers and Hp. the price of all their products are pretty good for what they offer. the 52 week range is 12.99 - 17.60 and i bought it for $16.26 and now it is $16.32 not to big of a difference but it is still something.

AOL Inc. operates as a Web services company that offers a suite of brands and offerings for the worldwide audience.

2nd journal 9/29/11
1. DIVIDENDS-a sum of money paid to share holders out of earnings.
since i own a stock in buckle i got paid my dividends
2. EARNINGS- money earned
i work at the pool so my paycheck is my earnings
3. PRIVATE COMPANIES VS. PUBLIC COMPANIES- private is inacessible and Public is open to public
Verizon is a great private company and under armour is one of the most popular public company
4. GROWTH STOCK-shares in a company whose earnings expected to grow above average
journal:
one of the two stocks that i chose is pepsi co (pep). i chose it because i like their products and i get a pepsi about 3 times a week. the 52 week of pepsi co is 59.25 - 71.89. pepsi has a rival which is coke and all of their products. the difference between them is the taste of the pop and the 52 week range 52.34 - 76.32.
transactions:
i bought netflix as a short sell because it has been down for two weeks now and right now it is making me $2,967.34 by itself. this is one of my best buys so far and i will probably keep it for another week if it does good. another stock that i just bought is pepsi. it has had its ups and downs and right now it is up again. its a good stock once it is up and it never has gotten down past 3.00%. i think pepsi is going to be down by next week to where im losing more money. and netflix i think its going to still be down within the next two weeks.
last part:
apple has 46000 emplyees and even though it is down right now its a good stock and will make you alot of money once it is up. to be honest i think this is an investment rather than a trade. even tho it is an investment i am still going to keep this going on in my porfollio. another stock i got is Direxion Daily Basic Matls Bear 3X Shrs this stock is an investment too and is seeking daily investment results. By investing at least 80% of its net assets in financial instruments that, in combination, provide leveraged and unleveraged exposure to the index

free 9\11 blog
I think that the Alkadia won... i think they won because we are still in Afghanistan fighting. They scarred us and we are trying to get revenge on them. To them it seems like its just a game that wont end... and when we least expect it they will attack again. they scared americans from going on planes. We are emotionally scared and scarred... we just dont realize how much they impacted us yet.
