Young Hedge Fund Investors
Over 2,000 post-secondary students acted as hedge fund managers for the InvestYoung National University Stock Market Competition which ran from October 16, 2006 to March 9, 2007. Approximately 20,000 trades were executed on over 2,800 symbols across all major North American markets.

All ten finalists posted returns that more than doubled the performance of the RBC Capital Markets Hedge 250 Index, which is a representative benchmark of hedge fund performance. The most actively traded securities were Apple, Google, Microsoft, Yahoo! and Sony.

Students were given the opportunity to invest a simulated portfolio of $1,000,000 Canadian (US $869,000) in securities traded on major North American exchanges. Story here.
