About this game
"A blindfolded monkey throwing darts at the stock pages could select a portfolio that would do just as well as one carefully selected by experts."
Inspired by Burton Malkiel’s famous theory in "A Random Walk Down Wall Street," Monkey with a Dart is a stock market simulator that settles the ultimate debate: Can professional strategy actually beat random chance?
In this interactive financial experiment, you don't just compete against a monkey—you compete against the market itself. Build your virtual portfolio from S&P 500 stocks and see if you can outperform both a randomly-picking primate and the most famous index in the world.

THE THREE-WAY BATTLE
• YOU: Build a custom portfolio from the S&P 500 and set your own allocations. 📈
• THE MONKEY: Our "trader" builds a random portfolio, mirroring your exact number of stocks and weightings for a fair fight. 🐒
• THE BENCHMARK: Track your performance directly against the S&P 500 Index to see if you’re actually adding value. 📊

• Live Leaderboard: A constant side-by-side comparison of You vs. Monkey vs. S&P 500.
