      June POTY update



      Ski, Stocks, and I make the current top three in the POTY contest. Congrats, Ski! You've TASR'd me off my drug-induced pedestal.

      I dominate the 'what-if' leaderboard with my GFCI short pick, while Grebnet and Peanuts duke it out for the #2 and #3 spots. They'd better watch out for Stenz, though, who's sneaking up on them with a combined score of 58%. He also currently holds the #4 spot in both contest rankings.

      Also of note:
      • 23 picks are beating the indices
      • 25 are underperforming the indices (20 are in the red)
      • Average score is 5.1%, which is identical to the S&P score.
      As a group, could we possibly be more average than this?

        POTY Jul update


        Here's the latest... too sleepy now to offer any decent analysis, but hopefully the current POTY leaders (Ski, Stenz, DMK) can offer some insight as to what makes them so incredibly HUGE in this contest.

          Thanks for the update jiesen.

            Stenz,
            Those picks (WI) and actual are killer.

                tasr has THE state of the art product, most well know product in that field, proven to work, winning most bs lawsuits, and was historically cheap with escalating sales at the 7.80 levels. it was meant to be a long term play so the technical aspects of the chart at that time weren't really part of the decision to buy in at the 8.00 range. I would be a buyer at this point if i weren't in it yet. i think it goes to 30 or higher easily over the intermediate term.

                  Thanks for the insights, guys! I just wish DMK were around so we could pick his brain as well. He sure had his share of unbelievable picks... but I guess he must be taking his break, reading his "TV Guide".

                  As for my GFCI pick, my 2 cents is that I knew there was a good chance it wasn't worth even a penny, after all of the broken promises coming out of this one. That theory is quickly proving to be the correct one.

                    TASR was a great buy and long term play on this recent drop and pullback. Came back with a vengenance today. Now back above the 50, 100, and 200 ma's. Above all resistance and looks to be ready to make a move. A buying opportunity just past in the 14 - 15. This was a great entry level. I like it to 30 that's close to a double from here.

                        I wish I could promise that but I do love it from here River. Hang in there and I'm sure it will go to where you want it to go and if we get lucky maybe even farther up.

                                October POTY. Another month, another update...



                                Stenz, Ski, and Sirtuck are leading the POTY, while my "what-if" pick ties Stenz's contest pick with a 153% score!

                                MEA's pick DSX gets an honorable mention at second in the "what-if" category, while Peanuts' and Stenz's amped up shorts duke it out for third.
