My pick was good in the beginning of the year, but I never bought it because of the high p/e of 24 to 22. It was mostly a momentum trade which can change at any moment like was seen by most of the picks through the year. I guess this entire year was moves derived from momentum, because the fundamentals didn't change. Earnings are still steady with high p/e ratios. I am readying my pick for next year. Just for details, this year looks like it's a year of A.I. momentum, and standard buying S&P. It's hard for me to congratulate the winners because of the volatility, but again I guess it comes down to something...maybe...maybe. As long as we're all together... Congrats to all for another year of participating!.

It’s over, it’s over, it’s all over. The market went out with a whimper and so did our picks. We did have some highlights, though. Three of our picks beat all three of the major indices, five picks beat the S&P, and seven picks finished in the green. Pretty, pretty good. OK, now for the final standings. Drum roll please …
In third place we have Massimo’s XBOTF.
In second place we have Jiesen’s BBAI.
And the winner of our 2025 PotY stock picking contest is … Minni17’s ATAT.
Congratulations to our first three finishers and a grand Huzzah for Minni17! Here are the final standings:
Time to start thinking about your 2026 picks so put your thinking caps, start doing your research, and have a great New Year!

In case anyone is interested, our mock portfolio just about broke even this year with a paltry +0.60% return. Not great when compared to last year’s +13.5% return, but better than the previous years -6.38% return. Oh well, we’ll swing for the fences in 2026.
