POY Contest Standings As of Market Close, August 7, 2020

There was a lot of jostling at the top this week. After the smoke cleared, Mimo’s NEXCF remained in the number one position, although the huge lead NEXCF once enjoyed has all but disappeared. As it stands now, it’s anybody’s game.

Mimo’s NEXCF widened its lead a bit this week, but, for the most part, things remained fairly clumped up at the top and a good week could vault any of the top stocks into the lead. The game clock is starting to count down, however, so if you’re lagging behind you better give your company a good kick in the rear end because it’s time to punch it into high gear.

Thing heated up this week, especially for Mr. Market’s INTZ. We now have a virtual tie for first place with NEXCF and INTZ separated by a mere .04%. We still have four months to go, and a lot of stocks are still in play. Stay tuned.

Wowzers! Check out INTZ now... $$MM is really knocking this one out of the park, as it's nearly at $15 today!

[jiesen]

I just bought some INTZ today at $6. That way I won't feel bad when I get 2nd place to $$MM in this contest. Also, at $80M this company looks cheap.

Boy, am I sure glad I did that right now.

POY Contest Standings As Of Market Close, August 28, 2020

It was a very active week. The big news was INTZ, which had a wild ride. It pulled out to a substantial lead before a couple of down days reined it in. We also had a couple more stocks, CODA and NVCR, move into positive territory, perhaps ready to mount their own challenge and move into the pack hovering near the top of the leaderboard. By the end of the week NEXCF remained in front even though it experienced a minor pullback itself. As it stands now, we no longer have any stocks with 100%+ gains although we do have quite a few stocks with pretty substantial gains. We’re on a downhill slope towards the finish line now, so it’s time for your stocks to kick into high gear. Good luck and good trading.

CRWD is the latest to go on a wild ride.

[billyjoe]

Riverbabe is kicking a**. I hope she's not taking names.

----------------billy

[jiesen]

Boy, am I sure glad I did that right now.

And now I've sold my INTZ here at 11 and change. Not quite the $13 I could have had last week or the $12 it was going for on Monday... but still nearly a 100% gain on this one, so I'm not complaining about this profit! Would just hate to see all the rest of it vaporize when the market tanks again over the next month or two. (which I think it will)

[jiesen]

Thanks, BTW, much to $$MM for throwing this great little pick out there for us! You are HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGEEEEE!!!!

[jiesen]

oh gosh...

Congratulations, Riverbabe. Your pick, CRWD, is our new leader. Watch out, though, Mr. Market’s INTZ is hot on your heels and there are still a cluster of others not too far back. We only have four months left, but a lot can happen in four months. Stay tuned.

Mr. Market’s INTZ surged back into the lead this week, but Riverbabe’s CRWD remains hot on it’s heels with both stocks showing very healthy 100%+ gains. Mimo’s NEXCF seems to have a solid lock on 3rd place followed by a hungry pack of contenders. Time to kick it into high gear. Will a late year surge change everything? Stay tuned.
