Is it just me or are the abandonia stocks not growing in price?



At least my The Black Den Shares are growing.



And I put them on the market for $3.15 per share.

Say my friend starts a company (using the OIEC system) worth £100, he gives himself 100 shares worth £1 each. I then buy 100 shares for myself from the company for £100; meaning the company has £200 in assets and £200 worth of shares have been issued. A month later, the company has been doing rather well, now having £400 worth of cash and assets. The shares are now worth £2 each as there are still 200 of them. I decide to cash in my investment. I get £200 for my 100 shares. The company is now worth £200 (having givne half of its assets to me), but the only shares remaining are my friend's, which are still worth £2 each.

Yeah but these funds are mostly used to invest in other stocks/bonds/currencies. They wouldn't be practical for running a single company.

Also you betray us if you buy HoTU stocks.

Except... We could do it and cause HOTU's stock to become nearly worthless. :P
1. Buying out as much of it as possible -> 2. selling out all of them at once -> 3. should create a sudden major drop in their worth -> 4. start a domino effect as owners sell out their shares to avoid further losses -> 5. go back to 3. and repeat.

:blink: What is it you actually don't get???

- The Buying of Shares
- The Selling of Shares
- Issuing your own Shares. :bleh:
- Or how a Stock market Works :blink: :blink:

In that last case I have an old game that might be useful to home your skillz.
Called: Broker. I believe it's in German. (at least the cover is, game can be in english, or not....)
Haven't played it in a while (win3.11), but Thoth reminded me of this INSTANTLY.

[EDIT]Word of warning. Don't try to sell for more than $100,- in stock. You'll be taxed if you would continue. Best would then be to sell one part now and the rest after 15 minutes.[/EDIT]
