creighton_abrams Posted June 11, 2018 Author Report Posted June 11, 2018 John99, There are "Blue Chip" stocks, considered stable and under basic BAWSAQ considerations, which is a global market. For Los Santos companies like Maze Bank who are publicly listed, factors such as an increase/decrease in business are base modifiers, but the most telling factors are stocks bought and sold. So if a stock is hot, it'll go up until it isn't. This is effected by competing stocks as well. Maze Bank is a direct competitor of other Real Estate companies, and Liberty Bank. If Bank of Liberty and a Real Estate company do well, Maze would be hurt.
DeanThompson Posted June 11, 2018 Report Posted June 11, 2018 (( I love the concept but actually have no idea how a stock market works. Also how would this work in game? ))
exdi Posted June 19, 2018 Report Posted June 19, 2018 I dont think you know how the stockmarket works.
Ducky-Chan Posted June 19, 2018 Report Posted June 19, 2018 @exdi Im sure it would be greatly appreciated if perhaps you gave some insight as to why you think this. Is it because of the way the price of a stock is decided? Ideally if you gave some "Feedback" maybe you can help shape what your vision of a stockmarket is.
Ed Liebenburg Posted June 19, 2018 Report Posted June 19, 2018 I have two concerns: accuracy of information, and incentive to actually hold the stock. These boil down into two main questions: 1) Where are you sourcing your metrics for "increase/decrease in business"? 2) Are there dividends paid out to stockholders, and by whom?
exdi Posted June 19, 2018 Report Posted June 19, 2018 Sorry for my short reply. I will make a very basic explanation. @Ed Liebenburg asked the questions I was thinking about. People primarily invest in business to get some of the profit, and they do this by buying stocks in the company. (Companies usually pay their shareholders a percent of their proft depending on how many shares you got in the company). Thats why when the businesses are doing well, the demand increase because people want to buy stocks in the company so they also get some of the profit. When the demand increases, the price increases. There are also people buying stocks to make profit buy selling them when they have risen in price. The problem you got here is that if I buy stocks trough your exchange, I wont get any of the companies profit. If I buy purely to wait for the price to rise, I will loose all my money because there is nothing to drive the prices up. If you solve these problems I would buy. Im not by any means expert in stocks and investments, but I know enough to understand the basics and a bit more. If you have any questions feel free to ask.
Denni Posted July 12, 2018 Report Posted July 12, 2018 To buy from the stock exchange, I actually need to have some stock... But where is the stock?
