This is real money, not a simulation. For educational purposes only — nothing here is financial advice, and this does not reflect the views of Hempfield School District.
Unlike the Portfolio Simulator, which trades with virtual money so every member can practice risk-free, this is the club's own account, invested with real dollars. It exists so members can see what actually investing — not just simulating — looks like, including the waiting, the small moves, and the real stakes.
This account is funded by club donations. It is not club dues, and no member is ever required to contribute to it.
Trades in this account are discussed and decided by club organizers, not any single member, and are not based on recommendations from the Portfolio Simulator or the Research tools.
