Diversification Challenge Explained

How Market Matador’s Diversification challenge works: keep every stock ≤10% of total assets, earn more for a complete set, and Claim weekly.

By Market Matador ·

Why concentration matters

Kids often stack one hot ticker. Diversification teaches that one name should not dominate the portfolio—just like real portfolio construction.

Two claim tiers

Tier A: every symbol ≤10% of total assets → Claim $20. Tier B: also own every playable card → Claim $80 (double the base plus a completeness bonus).

Once per week, Claim required

Eligibility is checked at the week’s last close and again when you Claim. The challenge never auto-pays, so open Challenges and bank it while you still qualify.

Frequently asked questions

What is the ≤10% rule?
No single stock symbol may be more than 10% of your total assets (cash + card market value). Meet that bar to Claim $20.
How do I earn the bigger reward?
Stay ≤10% on every name and also own every playable pack card. That completeness bonus pays $80 once per market week when Claimed.
Do I get paid automatically?
No. Diversification requires an explicit Claim, once per market week, while you still meet the rules.
