Portfolio of the week - 2007

[Rob]

Not sure what happened with Peanut's line. Rob, if you get a chance would you look at it please.

IBKR IPO'd Friday, and GoogleFinance doesn't have it in their database yet. Until they do you will need to type in the price manually.

Thanks Rob. Never thought to look that it may have been that. I thought I did something inadvertently.

Wow...I converted Spike to become a Cup w/ Handler in just a week...What's next...Double Bottoms?

Great idea, Doug!!

Not so difficult as I've already been working on that and 50 day sma bouncers...As you may have noticed I post the IIC 100 50 sma bouncers weekly anyway...That is pretty easy for me to do since I can view 30 charts per page easily on those...But obviously there are many other 50 day sma bouncers of interest.

The DB's...Have not perfected that scan as yet...Many have already passed the mid hi point of the W when I find them...But a little tweaking should solve that...However, I'm real busy right now and I'm going on vacation from 5/15-5/21...So, it will probably be June before I come up with the right scan...Doug

MR. MARKETS WEEKLY STOCK PICKING CONTEST

OPEN TO ALL WHO THINK THEY HAVE WHAT IT TAKES!!

MAY 8, 2007

WHILE EVERYONE HAD THEIR EYES ON RIVERBABE'S SKIRT AND LEGS THE SWASHBUCKLING SPIKEFADER LEGENDARY LEADER OF THE LARCENOUS PIRATE GROUP LE' LARCENOUS WAS HEARD TO SAY," I DON'T CARE ABOUT NO PRETTY FACES OR ARSES MATEYS. JUST GIVE ME THE BULLION THERE, HAR, HAR. WITH THAT HE PUSHED RIVERBABE OFF THE PLANK AND INTO THE DARKNESS OF 13TH PLACE WHILE HE STOOD ATOP THE LEADER BOARD SWORD RAISED IN TRIUMPH. 1ST PLACE TEMPORARILY SECURED IN HIS GRASP. THE REPTILIAN SKINNED GATORMAN WAS AT SPIKE'S SIDE. AS HE THREW GARY611 OFF THE PLANK HE RIPPED OFF A LIMB AND MUTTERED, "WHY WASTE A GOOD THING." GARY611'S STOUTNESS HAD THE GATORMAN DRIPPING SALIVA AT THE THOUGHT OF HIS TAKING OVER 2ND PLACE AND THE LEFT ARM HE WAS JUST ABOUT TO DEVOUR. IIC KNOWN THROUGHOUT THE CARRIBEAN AS QUITE A DANDY FOR HIS FONDNESS OF THE SOFTER AND MORE FLAMBOYANT COLORED GARMENTS AND WIGS MUSED HIMSELF WHILE RUFFLING THROUGH RIVERBABES TRUNKS. SOME OF THE FINER SILKER MORE SHEER PIECES OF APPAREL CAUGHT HIS INTEREST. WELL THE SPOILS DO GO TO THE VICTORS DON'T THEY HE THOUGHT TO HIMSELF. AFTER ALL 3RD PLACE IS ALL MINE. HE TIED PETE INTO A TIGHT KNOT AND STUCK HIM INTO ONE OF THE TRUNKS. MAYBE HE COULD USE HIM LATER. IT WASN'T LONG BEFORE THEY ALL FELL UNDER THE HEAVY STUPOR OF WINE, POWER, AND IN IIC'S CASE THE FRAGRANCE OF RIVERBABE'S PERSONAL FINERY AND THE GIDDINESS HE FELT FROM THE SHEERNESS OF HER SILK GARMENTS. AND THAT NIGHT THEY ALL DREAMED OF FINISHING 1ST. BUT NONE OF THEM THOUGHT OF THE SCOURGES LYEHOPPER AND ROB WITH FULL WIND IN THEIR SALES LEEWARD ON THE HORIZON.
OUR LEADERS ARE:

1ST: SPIKEFADER +3.17
2ND: GATORMAN +2.84
3RD: IIC +2.80

AND THE SCORESHEET PLEASE:

When I finish my career in construction I going to write ladies romance novels. I think I may have a gift for it. It just seems to flow out.

Give me a break! My 96-year-old mother who lives for romance novels would'nt be even be the least bit interested in your tame novellas. Riverbabe

Boy that's great Riverbabe. 96 years old and still interested in that stuff. Well I see where you get it from. The seed never falls far from the tree.

[spikefader]

Ski, I am not worthy! Gatorman has 1st honors tonight. My entry is $4.16 I believe. Great writeup though!!

Stockcharts had the open for MVIS at 4.10 Monday morning or so I thought. Rob also said he thought the opening price was at 4.16. I don't want to take anything away from anyone especially if it's a mistake on my part. Since you're also saying 4.16 then I'll change it to 4.16 and the subsequent order of standings. That won't save Riverbabe from the plank though as she has already walked the plank and been thrown overboard by Spikefader the larcenous and his Le' Larcenous crew. I'm also sorry about Gary611's arm as it is now in the bowels of Gatorman. There is only one way that is coming out. Riverbabe is the only one who can resurrect her from the depths.
I'll make the scoring adjustments tonight. Thanks.
