Feature Idea: Creating a Market Index like the S&P 500

Post by mdemircan2 »

Hey David,

I have a suggestion for the stock market part of the simulation. Would it be possible to create a general market index that reflects the overall state of the market, just like the S&P 500?

I think it would add a lot of value and be very "eye-opening" for the players. I feel like it would make a great surprise for Version 13! Let me know what you think.

Wondering how large are the numbers you are playing with, government bonds are seemingly unlimited (but boring) :lol:

I actually just made a more in depth post about how this could be done with an investment firm business. Check out my latest post.
