Congrats Lyehopper, Rob, and Eliaskane ! This would be Lyehopper's 2nd time placing in the top 3, 3rd time for Rob, and 1st time for Eliaskane !

Lyehopper shorted Aflac (AFL) at a great time. Guessing the stock dropped sharply this week after it was downgraded. Volume for Friday alone:

Friday: 35.54M Avg Vol: 5.43M

Rob grabbed POT also at a great time, just as the entire Non-Metallic Mining had a pretty good week. Any time you can avg a 10% gain for the week, you're doin' something right

And Eliaskane's AVD steadily went up this week, despite several fluctuations up and down this past month. Not too shabby for another rough week for the Dow.

Unfortunately the rest of us were not so lucky this week. Already seeing stories of bad news this week. Hang on tight everyone, shorting may be the correct move at the start of the week, before a bullish Friday. Hope my Stock Forecasts nay be worse than my Weather Forecasts



Ok, now the bad news. I may have to trim down the time I spend working on stocks while at work, and I know my time at home online has been cut nearly in half due to trying to move, take care of a toddler, clean, etc etc.

So if there be anyone out there who wouldn't mind taking over scorekeeping, or at the very least helping out, I'd be grateful. Love competing with everyone here, and on Spike DMC and Rob's POTW as well (to which I'm doing much better on their contests, lol) and would hate to have to close shop.

Let me know, thanks and good luck all !

[Odysseus]

Will do Peanuts

Going to try XEC long this week. Think she's a risk, but willing to try since all my other picks here have been terrible. She doesn't have the best pattern for a Psar hit that I usually look for, but she has it generally.

Oh and no worries, I should be able to keep score for the entire year, but I may be slow in my response times. So as long as no one minds that, we should be good. But if someone was available to keep up with it, I'd be much obliged.

Good luck all ! 2 days to go
