Becky's Bits of Financial Wizardry

My team's stock portfolio made a capital gain of about 794 dollars. Our biggest helper was our shares in Lions Gate, which had risen about $316 from the time we started, though we would've gained $988 dollars if we had stopped a week earlier. Our two best stock choices were Lions Gate and Apple, and these both increased somewhere around the three-hundred dollar range. In my opinion, though the stock market is always risky, this was a good experience, and my team made overall intelligent choices. Based upon my understanding of the stock market, if I had $5,000 to invest, I would probably split it evenly and put half in the stock market and half in the bank, where it is safe. The stock market is a very risky business, but if it is doing well I could make a large profit.
