March Madness Stock Pickers Tournament

[Iggy]

Standings

IMGG (10.95 as of this) ; Now at 11.00 (+$9.00)
ALSM (5.90 as of this) ; Now at 5.20 (-$238.00)
PARL (10.35 as of this) ; Now at 10.55 (+$39.00)
MRVT (3.35 as of this) ; Now at 3.60 (+$149.00)
NCEN (48.95 as of this) ; Now at 47.50 -$60.00)

A good week puts me at roughly $9900. Granted, I don't really know what I was officially logged in at when the starting pistol was fired...and I rounded off everything in the above calculation...so this is probably off.

Not spectacular, but considering I was down over $500.00 earlier this week, I'd say I'm doing ok. IMGG was a steal at the $8.95 it touched eight trading sessions ago.

Actually if we had all the regional finalists going to the championship it would include the 5 above teams plus CARRIBEAN MIKE the Southwest Regional champ, but everybody is still going to the last dance at the fabulous Market Dome Arena in West Roxbury Ma. seating capacity 75,000. Only Mr. Market could afford such a building. See you Monday night April 5th. Start cutting the cheese for shipment to you know who.


RL at this point is the only contestant with all 5 winners.


A special mention must be made of the performance of TAXMAN. As far as I can determine TAXMAN has never been mentioned in the top 5 picks or the bottom 5 picks. TAXMAN has never been one of the top 5 teams. TAXMAN has never been one of the bottom five teams. Your mediocre performance, TAXMAN, certainly inspires about half of us.

hey

I'm actually up a hundred bucks or so. Can't complain if I'm beating $$MM by $14.

XING is disappointing me, and LQMT is surprising me... I thought for sure the good news would have done more for XING, and the bad news would have sent LQMT right down the shitter, but hey, nobody ever said the market had to make sense, right?

FINAL

BILLYJOE you really do not want any one of those fat ladies smothering you that would be a bad way to go. Some of them have been eating my limburger cheese.Man that smells bad after It Is eaten. I promise to keep them away after the wonderful job you did. But I dont know for sure If my TASER gun can stop all that fat. I'll bring BUFFALO WINGS EXTRA HOT for everyone this will help MR MARKETS safm. There also will be enough MOLSONS CANADAN [the sex beer] for all, some of the fat ladies might look a lot better after drinking that. Also a FREE DART for all.

[mrmarket]

Agree...bravo BillyJoe...based on the number of page views on this thread, the rest of the world loved it too.

NCEN

NCEN is too late with its gain, being up $3.10 in after hours trading today. Too bad for my portfolio here, but nice for my actual long-term portfolio.

If not for that fact, I ended up on all my picks except ALSM (down quite a bit) which will eventually move up. Just not soon it seems.

[billyjoe]

Here he comes with his entourage , the Morman Tabernacle Choir of fat ladies. My God, is that my wife, Bertha? They cannot be silenced. They are beginning to sing. IT'S ALL OVER ! Too big for Tonowanda. Surrounded by full figured gals who kiss his darts and keep them warm between throws (President Bush has declared them weapons of mass destruction). The one, the only, RL . Start packing your cheese and meats. Total will be 160 units. A wonderful sportsman, RL is sending each of us a supply of preparation H to ease the pain of the ass whipping he laid on us.
