Hollywood Stock Exchange

| Add to Favorites

Buy and sell virtual shares of your favorite actors and movies — can you predict the blockbusters and bombs? If you've got the foresight, you could be the next Hollywood Stock Exchange tycoon.

It's just like the real stock market: brokers, bonds, cash-outs, commissions, predictions. Only on the Hollywood Stock Exchange (HSX), you're dealing with some of the biggest names from the silver screen and new films every week. Join for free and get two million "Hollywood Dollars," to start buying, selling or holding "MovieStocks" and "Starbonds" (The Dark Knight and Ryan Reynolds are looking pretty good right now!). The value of your investments is determined by their success (or failure) at the box office and how much they're being bought and sold.

Not too familiar with how the stock market works? No worries. Check out the Glossary page for all the terms and processes. Then spend some time in the Research and Features sections to get a few helpful hints and tips on what's hot and what's not (insider trading is encouraged!).

But beware! You'll be up against some fierce competition. In 2007, traders on the HSX correctly predicted 32 of 39 major-category Oscar nominees and 7 out of 8 top category winners. So find out if you have what it takes to make it on the Hollywood Stock Exchange.

it appears to be a very confusing mess at first glance - but after a few minutes it does start to make sense - I think it looks like a fun game - however I don't like that the so-called prizes ccost you money to get them - you can't just redeem for them - and that just disappoints me a great deal - cause otherwise this site might have held my interest

I think I'm slightly addicted to this. I created an account yesterday, spent nearly all of my cash and then have been checking it constantly. It's fun, but almost in a nerdy sort of way. I guess that's my one of my few complaints with this. You really have to be a nerd to enjoy it and you have to have patience. Several of the moviestocks I bought aren't even being released until 2009. Overall though I think it's really fun, just wondering if I'm going to have the commitment to stick with it.
