(Movie) Insider Trading: Visiting the Hollywood Stock Exchange ...
The Hollywood Stock Exchange (HSX) advertises itself as “just like the real stock market, only way more fun.” There is truth to that, but only if you already happen to enjoy the real stock market. It’s a simple process: one may sign up for free, buy and sell virtual shares of films and celebrities using the site’s “Hollywood Dollars,” and then play the market depending on how things make out at the box office. Interests piqued, I had to investigate further.
Feeling lucky, I enrolled on a lark and bought a few shares each of the recently released “Paul” and “The Lincoln Lawyer.” These two particular movies performed about the same on their opening weekend, but then purchases of “Paul” went down, and “Lawyer” shot up. Why? I have no clear idea. Maybe the old hats on the Exchange deemed Matthew McConaughey to have more legs than two Brits and an alien/Seth Rogen. Seems plausible, but then again Hollywood is obviously fickle. The whole situation is left up to each individual trader to figure out and maneuver, but there is never any real payout beyond the site’s fake money. Essentially it’s World of Warcraft for the financial transaction set.
HSX has some reach, though. It was created during the late ‘90s tech boom by financial players Max Keiser (current broadcaster and business pundit) and Michael Burns (now vice chairman at Lions Gate Entertainment). The company eventually raised around $30 million in private investment. The company had legs to withstand the dot-com bubble and was eventually purchased by the global financial services firm Cantor Fitzgerald in 2001. Steady growth has led to over two million traders worldwide. HSX makes most of its money now on advertising, but the future may hold more diversity.
I spoke briefly with Richard Jaycobs, president of Cantor Exchange, a futures trading house and subsidiary of Cantor Fitzgerald. Jaycobs is very optimistic about HSX‘s growth into the world of apps, Facebook games and other partnerships with content providers. Ideas also on the table are the selling of data garnered from the site’s box office predictions, as well as allowing users to pay for more virtual trading money. HSX already figures into general financial predictions one reads about all over the internet (on top of awards season estimations and the like) so such maneuvers seem like a natural progression, though any kind of leap into gambling arenas remains off the table for now, according to Jaycobs.
