Funds

Some veteran HSX players run special securities called funds. A fund is similar to a personal portfolio, although all of a fund's holdings are visible to the public. Funds also have themes, so instead of being able to invest in any security, the fund manager may only be able to invest in horror movies, or sequels, or movies based on video games, for example. The price of a fund is only influenced by the stocks held by that fund, not by players who buy or sell the fund. Most funds cash out once they reach H$100 per share, or the equivalent of H$100 million for a personal portfolio. This type of security can help to educate newer players about how to manage a portfolio effectively, and funds also represent an opportunity for slow and steady growth.
