This work reports simulations performed using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) as applied to investments on the stock market. About 480 stocks belonging to the S&P500 index have been taken into account. A naive approach has been developed in which one simulation step corresponded to one trading period. As a second ingredient of the investment strategy, the relative strength of an asset has been employed. The results are analyzed with respect to the parameters of PSO.
