helping our investment and banking studenst to learn about money markets and volatility, risk and reward. Students are given a fictious £100,000 and put into teams of four. each group decides on shares to by from the ftse100. They have buying fees to factor in and can make 4 transactions a week. Student participate for 10 weeks throughout the module, learning different skills and reasons for trading and price movements. students can buy and sell throughout the trading times.
At the end of the 10 weeks the student team with the most money (or least losses) are the winners. All studenst then reflect on what they ahve learnt.
students learn that there has to be a reason for price change and that most information is already in the price. They need to spot trends or look ahead to changes in economy, industry etc to have a reason that the price may move positively.
