The Bhawanipur Education Society College along with StockGro (online trading application) organized a Stock Market Event—MARKET MUSE from 11th to 17th April 2021. There were various rounds namely Market Flash (12-13th April), Market Trivia (15-16th April) etc. At the call of the day, the winners were declared.

The event started with the game Market Flash. The first game was to teach the students the basics of the app and hence it was kept short.

A zoom meeting was conducted to explain the usage of the app, processes and details of the event and the games. The Faculty also educated the participants on the same with the help of various PDFs. From explaining the difference between Portfolio Alpha and Portfolio Beta to answering the queries of the participants, they did it all. Post which, the participants i.e., the students were provided with virtual money to trade.
