Ody You Da Man

Congrats Peter and Peanuts ! (I always find it a bit odd congrating myself )

I lead the pack with a late pick I found on stockcharts.com, just looking a their cloud stocks. What makes me happy is this is the most money I've had since day 1 of the contest

Peter came in with a great +6% on MED's back. The stock just went up every day last week. Great pick sir ! Medifast, Inc. (Medifast) is engaged in the production, distribution, and sale of weight management and disease management products and other consumable health and diet products.

Peanuts just barely took 3rd ahead of Rob ( who just barely beat Hitmlong in his contest ) shorting ZSL. Very good call that we would end upwards this week Peanuts ! ProShares UltraShort Silver (the Fund) seeks daily investment results that correspond to twice (200%) the inverse (opposite) of the daily performance of silver bullion as measured by the United States dollar fixing price for delivery in London.

Good luck all, we're less than 20 weeks to the end of the year !

I've been away and haven't had a chance to look at much this week. I'll take a stab in the dark and go with AIG short for Friday

Ody, I've had a change of heart. Please switch my short to a long for the rest of the trading day. Thanks!

Ah ! My post dissappeared... odd. Second try...

Congrats John Henry ! Rough week for all of us but you managed to keep your head above water with COF at +2% gain. Not only that, but it is your first win of the week, and your 5th placing out of 10 picks. Great stats sir !

Better luck next week for us all

Ody, I think you made an error on my score. I should be green this week.

I was short AIG first, then switched to long. AIG opened at $52.98 as per Yahoo! finance on Friday, so I was positive 5.2661% on my short play plus .08% on my long play switcheroo. Where are you getting your numbers?

Ooo, sorry about that Peanuts, misread your entry:

I put you in at the time of you post. You won this week at +5.35% ! Sorry John, but you still came in 2nd !

I'll have to update the scoreboard as soon as I can, sorry again

Long EXM

Congratulations, Peanuts!

I am still long EXM!

Karel

[peanuts]

Hi Ody... thanks for changing that. I think that you just need to change the balance carryover to the final entry on the yearly scoreboard, and everything should be square.

I would like to short SCHN, please and thank you.

[Odysseus]

Peter takes the gold again with SLAB ! Not only did he win, he has moved up above RL on the 2009 Year Scoreboard to take 4th place. Current leaders are IIC, followed by Karel, Peanuts, then Peter. Congrats !
Silicon Laboratories Inc. designs and develops mixed-signal analog intensive integrated circuits (ICs) for a range of applications.

I took second place shorting an insurance company, just because I wanted to Thought it would drop a little more though. Selective Insurance Group, Inc., through its subsidiaries, offers property and casualty insurance products and diversified insurance services and products.

JohnHenry though hasn't taken first place yet, (sorry about last week John) still has an amazing knack of always being in the top 3. He came in 3rd this week shorting COF, keeping up with the bank failure news. Nice pick sir !
