Brighter Financial Futures hosted the Columbia County Stock Market Investing Challenge, and we were honored to be the sponsor.
The challenge offered students the opportunity to manage a hypothetical $100,000 portfolio by investing in stocks chosen from the American, New York and NASDAQ exchanges with live market data.
The student with the highest portfolio in the challenge is awarded a brand-new Chromebook in addition to the regular student and teacher prizes.
This year’s high school winner is Aidyn McHale from Southern Columbia Area High School under the direction of his teacher, Kayla Benfer.
