It's a game, you're looking for some potential big increases in a short period.
LMRA is a good speculative stock. Buy on support around 7 and sell around 10.
Look at the chart. Pops up, pulls back, pops up, pulls back.

Some solid stocks you might like are NYX or MA. KSS isn't too bad either.
Good luck!

Let me get this right. The winner of the game is the person that gets the best investing returns in one stock over one month??
If I were you I would tell the teacher that it is a really stupid game that sends the absolute wrong message to youngsters.
Are you a baseball fan? This game is sort of like judging a player by how he does on one pitch. Over time, a superior player will have a much higher batting average than an inferior one, but in one instance, the difference is much too small to notice and there is a great deal of randomness visible.
Read a book about Warren Buffett if you want to learn how to beat the market over time.

A great site to look at is http://www.top10traders.com
The site lists out which investors are doing the best and what stocks they have bought. Just click on the portfolio of the best investors and you can see the stocks they like. Also you can read posts from the top traders. This is a totally FREE site. You can also create your own portfolio of stocks with $100,000 in 'play' money, and then watch how your stocks compare against other traders. Good luck !

If you are a widow, an orphan, or a Geezer you probably should invest in a public utility like Con Edison. AT&T is good too.
If you're 25 and working steady, you could invest in Cisco Systems, Intel, Oracle, Microsoft, Honeywell, Hewlett Packard . AS LONG AS you hold on to them long enough, and don't bail out if they go up or down a little next month. Walgreen is good. So is Xerox.

Look around you ! What are you and those around you using everyday!! Check out those companies. Don't forget about companies that deal with futuristic things.. check them out and jump in.
When your game is over why not get started in it yourself!?? I got my son investing at the age of 13 and now he is 20 and has more than most 50 year olds!
There are companies out there that don't require a broker so you can check them out by typing "direct stock purchase plans" in the search engine. some you can get into for as little as $50. Hell get some of your friends interested in their future too!!
Good luck kiddo!
