Hey guys,


I'm a student myself and I'm very interested in stocks and investments in general.

We have a project at our school called PlanSpiel Börse.

At the end of the day, each participating team receives a stock demo portfolio, on which they can play around with €50,000 for six months. The team that achieves the highest return at the end wins the "game" and a prize.


I'm not after the prize, as someone will probably get lucky with penny stocks anyway - so it's unrealistic.


I'm just interested in which stocks you would rate as very interesting in the short term and why. I'm more interested in long-term investments, so I think it would be interesting to hear other perspectives and thoughts on the subject.

In the game you can only trade shares, without leverage (!) and each share may reach a maximum investment volume of €10,000 (!).


The game has been running for about a month now and we are up around 20%, but there is now a strong sideways movement, which is why I would like to restructure to 5 new stocks that could potentially break through the ceiling in the next few weeks.


You are welcome to give me a few tips, I would be happy to receive suggestions.


Thank you very much!


PS:

What do you think of these stocks?

KYG6427A1022 - NetEase $9999 (+0%)
NL0013654783 - Prosus $PRX (+0.06%)
FR0011648716 - Carbios $ALCRB (+3.95%)

In fact, that's exactly why I think the stock market game as it's played at school is stupid. In the end, someone who has taken a completely extreme risk will probably win, simply by chance.

It would be nice to simply play the game continuously over the years, i.e. invest in year 5 and then settle up in the Abitur. That would at least be a bit more long-term. But well, at least you'd be dealing with the topic at all.

As you rightly said yourself, nobody can tell you which investments will win in the short term. If you're more interested in the learning effect than winning anyway, you could just pretend it's your own €50,000 and invest it accordingly. You'll probably get the most out of it that way :-)

Maybe Nike will come back.
Everyone will be running to the GYM again in January.

Here at Aktienlust there is also a
stock market game - maybe you'll get some inspiration there.

So Microstrategy could possibly ignite at the beginning of January when the bitcoin ETF approval comes. But it could also backfire...
In a nutshell: the company is 90% bitcoin backed
My ideas would be Coinbase/robinhood, these benefit greatly from the Bitcoin bull run where the SEC decision will also take place on January 10. So there would be great potential here, but you should also be aware of the risks. Have a look at pond stocks on Instagram. Good luck!

$ALCRB Carbios is unlikely to go through the roof at the moment. According to current estimates, an increase can be expected from 2025 if everything goes as predicted.
