My Shares have the most appalling low price

Post by barbixx »

I am still playing the tutorials, but I have hundreds of hours played in Capitalism II, and even there I had the same problem: my shares prices are always extremely low when compared to my AI competitors.
Last night I was playing the last tutorial, continued playing even after I completed the goals, and even though I had a good share of a few markets (Oil>Plastic>drugs, furniture and jewelry) and even dominance, and I was making quite a lot of money, my shares were about $220 while my AI opponents have shares worth thousands.
I can't understand how that happens to me every singe game!
Can you please, really kind soul, tell me what I am doing wrong, or not doing, to get my shares to stall at such miserable prices?

Share prices are proportional to the total market capitalisation divided by the number of shares. It is possible that the AIs start off with fewer shares and hence the price per share might be higher.

You should check the overall market capitalisation - this is what really tells you how valuable your corporation is.
