PotY Contest Standings As of Market Close, February 11, 2022

Oops! I forgot to post the updated standings. Well, a strong down week in the market hit our positions pretty hard, but we still have a number of positions in the green and/or beating the market. The top three remained the same this week, with Louetta’s GBTC continuing to look strong. Here’s hoping the new week will bring better returns and no new wars.

TLPPF is a fairly thinly traded stock, with an average of just 3500 shares traded daily. Probably the reason it hasn't moved lately is that nobody's traded it this month yet.

Correct, it seems. Per Schwab and Yahoo it has not traded since Monday.

PotY Contest Standings As of Market Close, February 4, 2022

And they’re off! The 2022 PotY contest has begun. It was a bit off a rough first week, but we still have a few picks that are off to a good start. Congrats to Louetta and her pick, GBTC, for becoming our first leader. Closely behind are Tiedyed1’s AUPH and Minni17’s OGN. Keep those gains coming!

BTW, Mr. Market, there may be an issue with your pick TLPPF. It doesn’t seem to have updated this week. Has this symbol changed by any chance?

A few more hours to get your picks in.

A good choice for this contest. If it goes up this year, it's likely to be up a lot! (of course the same it true in the other direction)

Well spake. A good choice for the contest.

[BlueWolf]
