BrendanD, my suggestion is to forget real markets when playing HSX. (more inside)

Posted by: DTravel on Aug 17, 17:57 in response to BrendanD's post There's some confusion between us (cont.)

There are no dividends, profit shares or other cash income from any securities at HSX.  Buying/Shorting securities then selling/covering are the only ways of realizing a profit.  The price changes to generate those profits come from either other traders' transactions or the artifical price changes from Starbond adjusts, Moviestock opening weekend adjusts or cashout adjusts.

You may or may not know that HSX is a predictive market.  The prices and price movements are sold to other parties as input for their predictions.  So the mechanics and rules of the game are largely written with that in mind, encouraging players to predict how the real movies will perform rather than buying or selling based on a perceived real value.

Hope that helps.
