Rob,
I don't have numbers to back it up, but I believe the % of stocks under $10 that ever gain enough to crack $15 is smaller than the % of stocks over $10 that ever gain 50%.

Interesting contest, Billy. I'm a little puzzled about the premise, though, as it seems to suggest it's less difficult for stocks $10 and greater to gain more than 50% in 3 months. I would say there are compelling arguments that it's even more difficult for the higher-priced stocks to gain that much, but I haven't done any studies on the subject and maybe you have.Originally posted by billyjoe View Post
Nevertheless, I will try to come up with a pick, but I haven't got one yet.Leave a comment:

Now...On your contest...Am I right that the first one to close above $15 before the deadline would get the 1st prize...The second one...etc???
Not much of a 3rd place prize you are offering though...LOLLeave a comment:

Another Contest. This one has Prizes!!
Have you ever noticed how hard it is for a stock to get from <$10 to $15 or greater? I'm willing to bet nobody can pick an under $10 stock from the NYSE ,NASDAQ, or AMEX that will close at $15 or higher by close Friday Dec.21st. You can make 1 pick starting today and ending Friday Sept28th. If any stock closes above $15 before Dec.21st, you'll win one of these fabulous prizes.
!st place-----Hardcover copy 5th Edition Graham & Dodd's "Security Analysis"
2nd place----Hardcover copy Kenneth Fisher's "100 Minds that Made the Market"
3rd place----paperback copies Wm O'Neil's "24 Essential Lessons for Investing Success" and "The Successful Investor". These 2 are a bit dogeared.
Your stock must close the day at or above $15 to be a winner. Start your homework, due diligence, and research and show us your stuff!
Only stocks with gains will be posted periodically during contest run. The price of your stock will be based on the opening price the day after your selection if made during market hours.

I have 38 consecutive profitable trades of 15% or better. How is this possible? Every day there are hundreds of stocks setting new highs, no matter what happens in the overall market. Many of these stocks are still at very reasonable valuations. Afraid of buying stocks at their highs? Think of it this way: a new high is really a future floor for companies with solid financial underpinnings. Quantitative momentum modeling makes it easy to identify stocks that can continue this upward momentum trend. Why does this happen? It's really very simple..ask me about what investors and cows have in common. I am $$$ MR. MARKET $$$. I AM HUGE!!! Bring me your finest meats and cheeses. You can join in on the fun.
