Introduction to the ASX Schools Sharemarket Game

This is your chance to buy and sell shares in the sharemarket – hypothetically of course. In the
Sharemarket Game you get $50,000 to spend on buying or selling shares.

The Game runs for 10 weeks and follows the live sharemarket. This means that if BHP shares are
worth $35.00 in the live market, this is what you may buy or sell them for in the Game. If BHP shares
move up or down in price, this is also what will happen to the value of your shares.

This is as close as you can get to real life trading.
