Asia Pacific Financial Management Group Inc.
May 10, 2011 • The top five teams were awarded yesterday morning during the 2011 Stock Market Game’s award ceremony at the Holiday Resort Guam.
Winning teams
Teams from Santa Barbara Catholic School took first and second place, while Andersen Middle School followed closely with teams placing in third, fourth and fifth place. More than 60 teams from schools all over the island participated in this year’s game.
This year’s competition, sponsored by Asia Pacific Financial Management Group Inc., was held from Jan. 10 to April 21. Asia Pacific Financial has been sponsoring the event for the past 12 to 13 years, said Thad Jones, vice president of the company.
Academic subjects
The premise of the Stock Market Game is to “enliven core academic subjects (such as) math, social studies, and language arts,” a press release from the organizer stated. Teams from various schools were given $100,000 in virtual cash with which they had to build a portfolio of investments.
Simulated trading
The contest included a simulated live trading. Students analyzed current trends in the stock market, consulted with their “colleagues” and invested accordingly.
Arleen Suplido, advisor and math teacher of the winning team, was impressed with her students’ performance, especially because they were rookies to the game.
“This was the first time we participated and we started off with very little knowledge (of how to invest in the stock market),” Suplido said. But with hard work, research, applied mathematics, and comprehension skills, her team — from her seventh-grade pre-algebra class — landed the top spot.
“It’s very similar to what we do and sometimes they come up with techniques that we haven’t thought about as professional investors. We learn from them just as they learn from their participation in the game,” Jones said.
