Investors' Actor Shun Hirose's Salute! Chart Club | Chapter 3 Upgraded by Setting the Moving Average Line?

Characters in This Story

Gakushuin Chao (gakushuin chaat)

New member of the Private Waplus Academy Chart Club. It used to be that in class she was nicknamed the “Master of the Nine Digits,” but the moment the name changed from “Arithmetic” to “Mathematics,” she heard something in her that began to crumble, apparently.

Hirose Shun (Hirose Shun)

Captain of the Chart Club. His strongest subject at school is “Language Arts.” When he was little, to gain recognition for his reading, he voraciously read books from the library. But after entering middle school, he rose to the top in “Home Economics” grades, abandoning academics to cultivate a rare feminine charm.

Everyone, oi! This is investor actor Shun Hirose! This is the Chart Club’s third edition. If such clubs were commonly present in middle and high schools in reality, I think people could learn about investing from a young age, and Japan’s investing literacy would improve. (By the way, apparently there actually are a few high schools with an investment club. Incidentally, I played rugby in high school. I remember spending all day covered in mud and not studying much, haha). Now this month (this year) let’s renew our resolve and master the Ido-dai!

Part 0: What You Need for Investment

Hirose Shun (hereafter, “Shun”)This term he’s already spent quite a bit on club funds… huh? Wait? Gakushuin-kun… what on earth is this massive amount of receipt…?

Gakushuin Chao (hereafter, “Gak”) Macku desu.

ShunHuh? Food expenses?

Gak: Not that! It’s not that—it's the latest Mac, the iMac Pro...

ShunWait, wait, wait. Even if that’s the case, did you really put your personal Mac under expenses?!

Gak: But in this day and age, trading requires a computer. I didn’t have a computer, you know!

ShunWhat the heck… (the new member’s club funds are being misused in a brutal way…)

Gak: It’ll be okay! We’ll earn back the money through trading and make up for it!

ShunEven if you manage that, you’re not going to return it to club funds, right! Oh no, the student council will lecture us again about club funds… my head hurts…
