  1. Stock Market Webquest A Financial Portfolio By Alex EighthGrader

  2. Introduction • For this webquest I set out to find 3-5 companies to invest a tidy sum of $50,000 in. I researched some web sites, primarily www.bigcharts.com, and followed the stock prices of 5 companies over the course of about a week and a half, recording the results in Microsoft Excel. Then I put all of this information into colorful charts. From the charts, it is easy to see that the three companies I chose rose slightly over the week and a half. Finally, I decided how many shares of each stock to buy. I used as much of the $50,000 as possible.

  3. Conclusion • I would choose to invest the $50,000 in three companies: Dell, Panera, and Verizon. They have shown reasonable growth in the past five years, and each seem to have potential for more. • 511 shares of $37.01 each in Panera Bread Co., totaling $18,912.11 • 400 shares of $41.88 each in Verizon Communications Co., totaling $16,752.00 • 501 shares of $28.60 each in Dell Computer Co., totaling $14,328.60 Altogether totaling $49,992.71, with $7.29 left over.
