Go over Investopedia

This semester we will have an 'investing' competition.  You will each start with $100,000 U.S. to invest in the stock market.  You may restart up until October 21st, (3 weeks from now) but after that, you are in for good or bad.   There will be cash prizes for 1st, 2nd, and most diversified.
