I teach high school financial literacy. Currently, we are studying the stock market. Nothing too crazy, but basics like tickers, moving averages, quotes, splits, and dividends. I have them competing to put together $100,000 portfolios where they have to pick at least four companies. I did not assist outside of showing them good resources and how to read basic elements such as income statements for revenue and earnings trends, balance sheets for assets and liabilities, and statements of cash flow for free cash flow.
Here are the top ten picks:
|*Top 10 Picks*|*42.23% of total net picks*|
|:-|:-|
|Apple Inc. (XNAS: $AAPL)|8.42%|
|[Amazon.com](https://Amazon.com), Inc. (XNAS: $AMZN)|6.31%|
|Microsoft Corporation (XNAS: $NVDA)|5.74%|
|NVIDIA Corporation (XNAS: $NVDA)|4.86%|
|Sony Group Corporation (XNYS: $SONY)|3.11%|
|Tesla, Inc. (XNAS: $TSLA)|3.00%|
|The Coca-Cola Company (XNYS: $KO)|2.96%|
|Alphabet Inc. (XNAS: $GOOG)|2.82%|
