Description

In Fear & Greed: The Stock Market Card Game, each player is given $10,000 to invest in eight different stock options. Twelve "Fear & Greed" cards are dealt out, simulating a year in the market. The first round is automatically a Buying rush. All players, starting with the Banker, buy stock – 100/shares Min 400/shares Maximum. Once all players have bought, the player to the Banker's left becomes the Broker. The Broker flips a new Stock Market Value card, picks a "Fear & Greed" card in hand and reads it; all other players Buy or Sell on the basis of the card. Each card is color-coded and if it matches stock in a player's portfolio, follow what the card says. Forced actions always take your turn, then the next player becomes The Broker.

When all cards have been played, flip over one last Stock Market Value card and cash out all remaining shares at the new rates. The player with the most equity wins!
