Good News! An article written by Walter Hamilton in the Daily Press today was titled "Americans 2% Richer Than 3 Months Ago."  And guess why???? THE STOCK MARKET!   People who have enough money to own stocks and a house are wealthier than they were earlier this year.  An ultraeasy monetary policy has been used to boost recovery in the nation's housing market after the Great Recession.  This helped put U.S. stocks at record levels.   It's kind of cool we are playing the stock market game at the same time this article was written.

  1. Yay! I agree with you. It is great that this happened as we are playing the Stock Market Game. Perhaps Apple's stock will rise a record amount. Much of the class has invested quite a lot in their stock.
