Announcing the bigger and better than ever, 2025 Pick of the Year (PotY) contest!

my pick sucked...

[BlueWolf]

It was a down week across the board, and as a result, our picks slipped a little in value. Minni17’s ATAT held onto 1st, and Jiesen’s BBAI camped out in 2nd, but in yet another shuffling of the leaderboard, Molly’s ANET sprung back up into 3rd place. There is only one week and three days left to the finish, so if your pick is going to make a move, the time is now. Until next time, I wish everyone a very, merry Christmas!

The Dow sure had a nice week, but the NASDAQ and the S&P … well … not so much. As a result, some gains evaporated, the leaderboard shuffled, and we have a new player in the top three. Minni17’s ATAT is our new leader in 1st followed closely by Jiesen’s BBAI in 2nd. In 3rd, BillyJoe’s BP moved into contention, although with a lot of ground to cover to get into the top two. At this late date, it’s shaping up as a two horse race, but who knows surprises the market may hold. The finish line is in sight, so stay tuned.

I bought a LEAP Call this AM. Easy if you don't currently have any money in ORCL.

Hi, Dear. Bought 2 calls of 12/17/27 for $17.50 each.

That's not that serious. If you consider the volatility it's had through the year. Does that make Oracle a better buy now?

ORCL down > 10% after hours Wednesday!

Duplicate post.

It was an up week for all three markets, which lifted our picks for the most part. We did have a change on the leaderboard, but Jiesen’s BBAI held on to 1st place and Minni17’s ATAT remained in 2nd. Louetta’s ORCL, however, climbed back into 3rd. There are just a few weeks left now, so if a pick is going to make a challenge, now is the time to do it!

What if all those new data centers they're building now never get powered up because 90% of them are not needed after all? I am pretty sure that's what'll happen once AI figures itself out. We humans are super inefficient, and don't realize just how much yet.... we will soon, though. Of course soon is a relative term. Could be next year, but could take a decade for it to happen, too.

I don't know why VST is going down the tubes...every indication says electricity demand is going to be very strong

[jiesen]

Don't look now, but BBAI is up another 10% today! December is shaping up to be a fun month to watch the picks sprint to the finish line, indeed!

[BlueWolf]

Well, the short week was a good one for the market as all three indices moved up nicely. We added back a lot of gains to our picks. There was also a shakeup on the leaderboard with our new leaders being: Jiesen’s BBAI in 1st, Minni17’s ATAT in 2nd, and PSTG in 3rd. It’s still anybody’s game so let’s see what December has in store.

Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone! Enjoy your turkey and all of the trimmings!
