First Week Of The Stock Picking Challenge
Last week, we had ten student entries in the Harriton Banner’s first-ever Stock Picking Challenge! Students each chose three stocks that they thought would increase the most over the next month.
Here are the top 5 largest stock growths so far out of all of the entries:
| Stock/Ticker | Starting Price 05/19/21 (USD) | Current Price (USD) | Percent change (%) |
| Tesla (TSLA) | 563.46 | 580.88 | 6.19% |
| McLaren Resources (MCL) | .085 | 0.09 | 5.88% |
| Disney (DIS) | 169.27 | 174.87 | 3.31% |
| S&P Global (SPGI) | 37-.67 | 382.45 | 3.18 |
| New Era Energy (NXE) | 36941 | 37968.8 | 2.78 |
We’re excited to see what changes in the coming weeks. We’ll be sure to keep everyone updated. Stay tuned!
