Junior Achievement is bringing the stock exchange to Nebraska! This fun-filled, action-packed competition gives high school students the opportunity to experience the stock market first-hand while enhancing team-building and communication skills in a fast-paced environment.Students complete five in-class lessons prior to the competition to learn about the basics of the stock market and the importance of savings and investing. Then during the virtual competition, each team is issued $1,000,000 to invest in shares of fictitious companies. Throughout the 60-turn trading period, the simulation will follow news events as they impact the market, challenging students to work together and determine if they want to buy, sell, or trade.
