Portfolio of the Week

[Tatnic]

Tatnic,
Come to Wisconsin; they're as thick as cheeseheads. It's easy to get deer here. I took out a 12 point with my Buick; a man in my church hit a huge deer with his pickup and did $5k damage to it. And last year we had a woman from my church killed by a deer when she swerved and went into the ditch. People also shoot them here, too. You'd do us a service by cutting down on the herd.

lol, that's some expensive meat, although probably not as expensive as mine. I once figured out my average cost of venison per pound and its pretty staggering!

Come to NJ. They are not as big as what you guys are talking about but they are plentiful and you could get a nice rack up to around 10/12. In the mid to southern section where I live they are smaller but plentiful. There is a large park near my home that we walk in almost every day usually right after I get home before dinner. A guy whose backyard borders on the park is putting corn out and I've seen a few 10 and 12 pointers in there. There is a herd of about 24 eating there every night with about 3/4 big bucks in the herd.

Riverbabe,

I am very sorry because I made a mistake in my haste to post the trades yesterday. I re-checked the opening price for your trade at the time you made the post, and the price should be $37.75 for ENER at 10:09 am. Real sorry about this, sweety.

So Ski, please excuse my mistake and give Riverbabe the proper price if you see fit. Or you can deduct the difference off of my trade for punishment for not being as good as Rob... If it makes a difference I double-checked the prices tonight

Peanuts,
Thank you for doing this for me. Myself and everyone else appreciates your going out of your way to do this on a timely basis. Thanks for going back and checking out Riverbabe's ENER entry price for yesterday. Now everyone should be happy and I can get the score sheet updated and announce this weeks winner

THE DAILY POTW FORM
ALL THE CONTEST RESULTS WORTH READING
MARY STUNS!!! EXPERIENCED TRADERS!!!
In what has to be the most shocking results of the year ROBS little sister pulls away from the field in stunning fashion to hold on to her lead and take her first win after only her 2nd full week of play. There have been reports of several experienced traders going into their garages and taking the pipe. ICEMAN surges back into 2nd place with SKIRACER holding onto 3rd place. RIVERBABE slips into 4th on the merit of a scorekeeping correction and the strength of her 2nd pick this week. 15 green and 5 red with 1 pretty in pink still in CASH. A decent week with gainers outpacing the losers by a 2/1 margin

Wait a minute!!!...Those are not the prices of EDU...See Below

It doesn't really matter because Mary beat me anyway...But where does Peanuts get these prices???

I'd like to know if someone else has the ability to get the prices on EDU...Not for the contest but I'd like to know if my source is bogus...I got 30.48 at 11:17am EST and 30.449 at 11:28am EST...Peanuts has 30.41 at 11:17am and no trade till 11:29am at 30.32...Now I will be honest...I was watching and did not see the trade at 11:28am as it happened...I did see the trade go by at 30.32 .

Unless you actually have the raw data and time of sales screen available to you then your not getting the right price. I don't know what it is that you are posting from but that is not look like a time of sales screen to me. There could be hundreds of different trades at different prices within a one minute time frame.

The pressure is on now.

In what has to be the most shocking results of the year ROB'S little sister pulls away from the field in stunning fashion to hold on to her lead and take her first win after only her 2nd full week of play.

Yeah, but now the pressure is on to try to follow that act. The VIAC pick was a gift that just fell in my lap. I've been using the same market research site ever since I made the VIAC pick and, although I've seen other upgrades from "hold" to "buy" and read about those companies, I have not yet seen anything that reaches out and grabs my attention the way VIAC did. I almost wrote a post today when VIAC was up by only $0.03 to sell VIAC but I didn't do it. I was fretting about someone in this group (can't remember if it was Peanuts or Ski) who threatened that he had a secret pick that was going to challenge my first place position.

P.S. By not breaking under pressure and selling when VIAC was up $0.03, I gained an additional $0.09 since, according to a quick Google search, VIAC gained $0.12 today.

Whatever...I think the stuff I posted indicates the opening price for the minutes indicated....If there is zero vol then it didn't trade that min.

However, no one can list all the T/S for Naz stocks...That info does not exist....Even the Nasdaq itself does not publish that info because they don't have it.

I'm not trying to be a complainer...And I offer my congrats to Mary for a fine performance...Plus she would've won anyway...But as scorekeeper I think you should let us know which published T/S prices will be considered "Official" for the contest...thx...Doug

Come to NJ. They are not as big as what you guys are talking about but they are plentiful and you could get a nice rack up to around 10/12. In the mid to southern section where I live they are smaller but plentiful. There is a large park near my home that we walk in almost every day usually right after I get home before dinner. A guy whose backyard borders on the park is putting corn out and I've seen a few 10 and 12 pointers in there. There is a herd of about 24 eating there every night with about 3/4 big bucks in the herd.

geez Ski, doesn't he worry about Lyme Disease? A deer tick is in many cases so small they're mistaken for freckles, and usually its the small ones that carry the bacteria. And don't you guys have bears in abundance now? Putting out corn for deer is a bad idea if there are bears in the vicinity, the next thing you know he'll come home to a bear in his bath tub. Remember that poor family in NJ that had their baby stolen from a crib by a black bear? I sure hope that no one was putting out food for deer and attracked that bear by accident. That's the problem with feeding wildlife, there are unintended consequences.

We don't have many bears in this portion of the state although about 4/5 months ago a small black bear came out of the park that I am talking about and walked down the middle of our street. I was at work at the time and my wife called me to tell me that there was a bear walking down ours street. Not sure where it came from or how it got here but must have worked it's way down from up north somewhere. I personally have never seen one in this area.

I know that feeding them will attract more of them but the park I am talking about basically surrounds our whole neighborhood and is loaded with deer. Directly across the street from the park is the old Ciba-Geigy manufacturing plant site and it is probably as large as or larger that the park and is also loaded with deer. It's like they have a private reserve with no real predators. Like I said earlier I have a doe that has taken to living in our backyard.

Doug,
I don't have them available to me after the close. I do have them available to me during the open hours but I'm not always available to read the posts and correlate them with the time of sales during the open hours so I have to rely on Peanuts or Runner or anyone who is gracious enough to take the time to do this for us and the POTW in general. I am taking Peanuts or Runners or anyone else who has the available time of sales prices and will post them when I ask for them as the price I am going to use. I think that we are all going to have to deal with those prices. Peanuts and Runner's prices matched for EDU at the time of 11:17:07 am. That is close enough for me an I hope that you can agree with them and let them be good enough for you since they both matched. This is the best that I can do under the circumstances.
I'm sure there will be times where mistakes will be made but as with Riverbabe's entry in ENER which Peanuts erred on initially he was gracious and accomodating enough to go back and check it out and make the correction. We can't expect anymore from someone who is trying their best to help and to keep this thing afloat. Anytime there is a disputed price or anything else in question, all I ask is that each of us exhibit enough patience to let me find the error and make the corrections as necessary. That is the best I can do.
