In May, Manthra Panchapakesan, grade 12, was named the state and national first-place winner in the InvestWrite competition, put on by the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA). The annual competition, launched in 2004, presents students in grades 4-12 with an investment scenario for which they must make portfolio recommendations for both short- and long-term financial goals. As a culmination of The Stock Market Game, which is played by nearly 600,000 students nationwide, the InvestWrite competition, with 20,000 participants each year, helps students develop the know-how to make real-world financial decisions.
