Rules for Pick of The Year (PoTY) 2020

[Louetta]

When it used to be socially acceptable to go to the dog races the veterans used to say bet the class and, methinks, the class came in at or near the top this year.

I heard from John Henry and it’s official, Riverbabe is our 2020 PotY winner! Congratulations, Riverbabe 拾 !!

Let’s tell her what she’s won. You’ve won an all expenses paid trip to your living room where you’ll enjoy your own personal couch and a healthy dose of cable TV. Your meals will be prepared by chef (Your name here) using food from your refrigerator! Pets are optional. Total retail value of this package: $0

Congratulation Riverbabe for winning the Pick of the Year 2020. What an enormous gain with CRWD.

So, John Henry and everyone else. Do we want to do a PotY contest for 2021? The prizes should be even more spectacular this year 😉

I am up for another POTY contest!

I believe that a port of POTY stocks have made nice returns in 2018, 2019, and 2020. I want to sink a few $$$ into a portfolio of POTY 2021 stocks.

Sure......

and sold the rest today at 11.2, and a $2 profit on these shares of INTZ. That's better than a 15% gain on my INTZ in less than a week!
Thanks again for finding this little gem, $$MM!! YOU ARE HUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGEEEEEE!!!!

Just look at INTZ go! less than a year after $$$MM picked it at $6, it's now trading around $24! Had the POTY gone the full year (until 2/1) perhaps $$MM would have taken all the meats and cheeses for this contest... and there's one stock I sure wish I had let run for a bit longer.

Last year, I picked NIO as my PotY choice. It pretty much plummeted for the whole year and I ended up at -49%. This year, NIO opened at $3.54 on Feb 1 and closed at $48.78 on December 31 for a whopping 1378% gain! How’s that for being in the right place at the wrong time. I had a hunch about that stock, but I never put any real money on it. What a knucklehead.
