Stocks are what make the Wall Street Sports™ world go around.
First, pay NO HEED to stock price in choosing your investments. A player's stock price will change for several reasons, based primarily upon two things: (1) Buy/Sell
Volume of the stock and (2) Player performance compared to his PER GAME Estimates, and the resulting Bonus.
The buy/sell volume will have a gradual effect on the share price, and will generally drive the price up or down over a period of days. In the period known as the "moo", or the period of time just
following a buyable event or performance, the buy/sell effect will be magnified.
The player's daily performance relative to his per game estimates is where the real money is made (or lost). You should base your purchases on a player's performance
THAT DAY.
WARNING! There is a 1% tax charged every time you buy or sell a commodity.
So, in a day-trading scenario, each buy-sell combination will cost you 2%. Make sure that, before you
buy, it can reasonably be expected that there will be AT LEAST a 3% return (Note that doing this consistently will not win you many monthlies).
Why Stocks Go Up
A stock's value will go up as the result of the following two things:
- The Buy-up (moo)
- Outperforming relative to per game estimates.
Why Stocks Go Down
A stock value will go down only as a result of four things:
- The Sell-off (negative moo)
- Underperforming relative to estimates
- The WSS daily reset tax
- Stock splits
