The event themed "Capital Market as Part of Financial Planning" was organized with the aim that the participants have awareness of the importance of investing and has the ability to invest in capital markets in the form of shares. The competition begins with a three-day seminar held at Bale Rumawad Padjajaran University and continued with the purchase or sale of shares online through applications that have been provided by the committee for nine days. After nine days had passed, the five teams with the highest amount of cash entered the final stage and presented the results of fundamental and technical analysis on stocks that have been purchased over the previous nine days.

In the interview, Joanne deplored the condition of most of Indonesian people who do not understand about stocks and shares are considered an educated guess without analysis. Joanne and Gloria said that the stock does sound familiar to students of ITB, but that does not mean stocks cannot be learned by the child techniques. "Actually, the stock is not difficult. There are families who play the stock, shares of KSEP and learn to read and read a book, so basically as long as there is a will, there is a way." Joanne said.

In the same line with Joanne, Gloria expressed willingness and interest is the most important thing before starting the study. "Incidentally learn macroeconomic at collage and sometimes envy that friend who is read a thick macroeconomic book, then I feel motivated to learn stock investment." Gloria said. Touched about motivation to compete, both stated that the motivation to follow the competition is a sense of wanting to learn and ideals of success in stock investment. Joanne aspires to start a business into a pharmaceutical wholesaler in the world who has collected capital through stock investments since young, meanwhile Gloria wants to make a business and become rich.

Gloria and Joanne have great expectations that stock market investors in Indonesia can be increased, given the conditions of Indonesia's stock market is still evolving and the potential for the majority of transactions originating from foreign capital. "For colleagues who want to start learning stock investing, read books and the internet is a method of learning to do, but it is not enough, considering the world of stocks require practice and hours of flying," she ended the interview.
