Just Beat (the Street) It!

After the stock market closes today, Mainstreet will be unveiling a new contest called Beat the Street. Think you’re a good stockpicker? Think you’re smarter than you’re fellow web surfer? Well, Beat the Street lets you prove it and come out $60K richer.

The rules are simple. Each participant is given $250,000 in fantasy money to create a stock portfolio of five stocks. Each stock is traded with $50,000 and its value is based on the stock price from the open of Monday’s market. In addition, you may alter your portfolio once during the week by swapping out one stock in your portfolio between Tuesday evening and Wednesday morning. The contest goes for twelve weeks.

If you don’t win $5,000 the first week you try again the next week. Beat the Street has no limit for how many times you can win! Which means you can win up to $60,000. If you want to see how you are doing compared to your competitors, before the top portfolio is announced, check out the Beat the Street leaderboard.

Select your stocks after 5pm today for the first game that begins Monday, April 7th. Click here to sign up for the game that will make you the envy on streets everywhere, not to mention $60k richer!

And, we’re not all-or-nothing types over here. The player with the biggest portfolio gain each week will win $5,000 weekly. What’s the catch? All you have to do is play the market each week. (…And, well, have the biggest portfolio gain…)

Now go out there and Beat the Street! Good luck!
