form of dividends. Players hope, as in real life, that the prices of their particular
holdings of stock will rise or that they will be able to “corner” a stock and force
the other players to be penalized. Players buy and sell stocks from and to each
other. Although much depends on the individual player’s luck he can increase
his winnings by selling certain stocks and holding other stocks at the proper
time. After a few games a player will learn the best way to buy and sell his
stocks and to take advantage of the various opportunities which arise in the
game. THE OBJECT of the game is for one player, by wisely manipulating his
holdings, to acquire all the money and to become the owner of all the stock.
RULES :
THE WINNER of the game is the player remaining after the other players have
been forced from the game by the loss of all their money and stock certificates.
