The
Stock
Market
Look
at the stock market report in a newspaper. Write a brief
explanation of what the positive and negative numbers mean,
(the increase or decrease in the unit price of a share from
the previous day’s trading). Choose five stocks of local
interest or of special interest to you. Graph their
variation compared to each other. Is this a good way to show
a comparison? Why or why not? What would be a useful graph
to compile for a possible investor? Create such a graph and
show it to several people. Did they understand it? What
changes did they suggest?
