StockMaster

A game of skill and chance

Choose the stock (or stocks) that performed best in 2020 (year to date):

1. Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. - (Common)

2. Perrigo Company plc Ordinary Shares

3. PepsiCo, Inc. - (Common)

4. ResMed Inc. (Common)

5. Marsh & McLennan Companies, Inc. (Common)

Game Information

The stocks displayed are S & P 500 stocks. The goal is to pick the stock (or stocks) that you think had the best performance year to date, then click Submit. After you submit your stock picks, your score is calculated based on the overall percentage increase (or decrease) of the stocks that you select. Assume that you own an equal percentage of each stock that you select. For example, if you select 4 stocks, assume that you own 25% of each stock because 25 * 4 = 100. If you select 3 stocks, assume that you own 33.33% of each stock because 33.33 * 3 = 100 (technically, 99.99 but we round up).

Point Information

To calculate your score, do the following:

Note the total number of stocks that you selected (we'll call this TotalStocks)
Add the percentage change of each stock you selected (we'll call this TotalChange)
Divide the TotalChange number by the TotalStocks number and multiply the results by 100 to calculate your points
The formula can be written as Your Points = (TotalChange / TotalStocks) * 100
The number of points may be rounded up

Not sure what to pick?

Consider picking several or all stocks/equities.

Picking more than one stock increases your chances of having a positive or net positive result.
