Portfolio of the week - 2007

[Peter Hansen]

Congrats to All

Congrats to all and .......especially to SKI for his great commentary and terrrific job with the analysis and writeups !

[Karel]

Congrats to the top 3 last week and to Spikefader especially for attaining the 100% return in the POTW yearly tracking portfolio. He has finally surpassed $2000, and is on his way to much larger gains. HUUUUGE by any standards!

Thanks peanuts, I was wondering were I stood! I like it. And of course I mainly got lucky. But my QHF fund in its totality would have scored 1138 or so, and that isn't bad either! And congratulations of course to Spike! Amazing!

If anyone can do the scoring this week, I will start with ICE long

Yes, that seems to be the problem. Anyone in for a full package of undying gratitude from the rest of the players? And don't feel obliged to do outdo you predecessors in write-ups; a scorecard, largely automated as I understand, is all that is necessary for the POTW. (And that is a commitment too!)

Regards,

Karel

Thanks, gents! A win always be as nice as a fine sunrise on th' green ocean........and suspicious scallywags can rest easy that me tiny sails didn't catch extra breeze from me own blowin'.

And by the by, it nay changes the final positions but I actually shorted ACPW and lost a penny. I thought ye had me thar fer a while, lads.

Thanks for keeping track of the yearly results, Peanuts. And thanks Rob for jumping in as scorekeeper. It is a tough job but the scorekeeping tools make it a lot easier. I do not know where you get your intraday prices. MSN has them available. You may need a free MSN Passport. Here is a link to Spike's TRCR (10 day chart):

Go to File | Export and the prices in 5 minutes interverals will magically appear.

I've got to take a break from the markets for a while.... I'm not trading as effectively as I am used to. I've closed a substantial amount of my open positions and I'm only sitting on a few stocks of which I've done lots of research. I'm getting worn out and need a break. I hope my stops don't trigger, but my sell triggers do

Rob, thanks for picking up the ball. You are the man! If you continue to do the scorekeeping, may I ask to be carved in stone $$CASH$$ for next week? Thanks.

I'll just ride the rest of the week out in ICE
