Rules for Pick of The Year (PoTY) 2019

[JohnHenry]

Happy New Year!

You have until February 1, 2019 up to 11:59 PM PST to make a pick -- starting price will be the closing price, (per Google, unless it's shown that the Google price is incorrect) on February 1, 2019. Any stocks trading on the NASDAQ, AMEX, NYSE or OTC is fair game -- long or short.

We welcome IPOs if picked by the end of February 1, 2019 -- starting price will be the closing price of the IPO.

Picks submitted after February 1, 2019 are welcome -- a 20% penalty of the closing price.

Short share price -- Price when delisted.

Discussions and concerns are welcome. Good Luck!

Are you allowed to close your pick before year end if you want to lock in profits or limit losses? I realize you can’t make a new pick, but can you close your beginning of the year pick?

[riverbabe]

PCG short please

Oops! Please cancel this pick. Good news for PCG yesterday = bad news for me. I'll be back with a different one.

[BlueWolf]

QUESTION: I ask this again. Can I close my position before year end to either lock in profits or limit losses? This is what I would do if I were trading real money. I’m not asking to pick another stock at that point. I just want to know if I can close my position before Dec 31.

My 2019 pick is Aurora (ACB) - its the second-largest pot stock and screaming for a buyout.

Also like Koios Beverage (KBEVF), but sticking with ACB as 2019 PoTY.

PCG short please

I have PG&E for utility. Many of my classmates works at PG&E in the bay area. Short PCG - Very brave.

John Henry, SHOS short. I'm flogging the kin of a dead horse. Thanks

Hi Billyjoe,

I just changed the rules for you - You cannot short any Sears stocks or any stocks with the name "Sears" in it/brand.
