• The Hollywood Stock Exchange (HSX) is an entertainment “stock market” where people can buy and sell virtual shares of celebrities and movies for a currency called the Hollywood Dollar®.

  • The share price rises or falls depending on the success of the main movie or celebrity in the entertainment market. Prices can skyrocket when a blockbuster hits the theaters and plummet if no one goes to see it. New York-based brokerage firm Cantor Fitzgerald, founded in 1996, acquired HSX in 2010.
  • Now the headquarters is in Los Angeles, California.
