    ....just go to yahoo/finance..... where you see a box marked " quotes"...you enter the symbol of the company you bought stock in... if you don't know the symbol...use the " symbol look- up " function.

    if you are looking for companies or stocks ..just for the project...try BEXP ( Brigham Exploration Co ).... doing very nicely lately........ or see if you can invest in ETF's like UYM..( materials )...or EDC ( emerging markets )......they are ' leveraged" meaning they gain two or three times the daily percentage that the sector they are invested in..(.good for fake investing !!!)

    finance.google.com will let you set up a stock tracking tool for free, you just need to list the stock and how many shares and the day you purchased and it will count everything for you.
