Community Spotlight – JA of Eastern Iowa Stock Market Challenge

by

Guest: Dr. Nate Klein, VP of Education for JA of Eastern Iowa

The Corridor JA Stock Market Challenge® is an exciting, fast-paced, technology-based simulation that brings the world of Wall Street to life.

Seconds represents days of trading, and teams start with a hypothetical $500,000 portfolio.

There are two opportunities in our area: Cedar Rapids / Corridor on April 23 and the Cedar Falls / Cedar Valley on April 30.  Click on each location for specific registration information.

Registration for either event ends on April 10.

Both dates offer a separate student experience in the morning and an evening experience that is a fundraiser for adult teams.

Participants experience the rush of investing, buying, and selling in a dynamic market environment—learning financial literacy, teamwork, and strategic decision-making with none of the risk.

The stakes are high, the competition is fierce, and the lessons are unforgettable.
