Kailyn S.

STOCK LOSS/PROFIT
Ford $419.89
Apple $228.10
Kraft Foods $97.68
Amazon.com Inc. $84.30
Hershey Co. $83.44

Total Profit: $913.41

Was this a good portfolio? Why or why not?
Yes. I think this was a good portfolio because I made a lot of money, and picked stocks that I knew would rise with the season. I knew Apple would rise because it was Christmas season and people would be buying a lot of technology for gifts. Also, the Amazon.com Inc. would be used for buying/giving gifts. Plus Ford was steadily rising because now, more and more people are buying cars. I wasn't quite sure what was going to happen with the Hershey Co. stock, but I now realize that it was a good, safe investment because it rose, but not extremely fast. I think I did well for never having done this before, and am glad that I had some luck.
