In my Social Studies/History class, our teacher has created a game for us to play with a virtual stock exchange. You start out with $100,000. This game uses all real stock prices from legitimate companies. Kind of like E-Trade. Only no risk :) . Does anybody know what would be a good stock to invest in?

What happens to stock prices when one company is bought out by another?

Irony Of Poe asked:


What has traditionally happened to the stock price of the company being bought out? Does it rise? Or does the buying company purchase all the stock for very little and current stockholders lose their butts like with Bear-Stearns?

I’m asking this because I want to know what will happen to National City’s (NCC) stock if it gets bought out.
