STOCKS MARKETS INVESTMENTS PORTFOLIO MGSE SHARES "STOCK MARKET"

There are several commodities that you can invest in to try to earn some quick
money.  The Midgaard Stock Exchange is conveniently located just west of the
Midgaard bank.  Due to industry regulation, you can only purchase a maximum of
20000 shares of any given stock.  Stocks will occasionally pay out dividends
to their shareholders.

If a stock exceeds the maximum price for the commodity it will split and
double your shares, pay you a big dividend, and reset to a lower price. If a
stock bottoms out to 0 then you will lose all of your shares in that commodity
and receive nothing in return.

NOTE:  Buy/Sell at your own risk - if you camp, rent, or Kallisti crashes or
reboots - your stocks will *automatically* be sold back at the current going
rate.  Individual stocks will NOT save through leaving the game and are
nontransferable.

The SHARES command will show your current holdings.  All market info is
relayed on the MARKET channel.  (toggle market)
