          Week 25 (12), Day 1

          The Stock Girl leads off the 25th week of the year handily by shorting Steel Dynamics (STLD) and picking up a healthy gain of 4.51%! Take your winnings, Stock Girl, and buy you some solid food to put some meat on them bones.

          I was right pleased with the way ImClone (IMCL) held up today in an otherwise down market. It treated me good to the tune of 2.96%. I'll take it!

          Third place this evening is held by the One Who Hops in Lye, with a one-two punch of a short on AK Steel (AKS) (a pretty good play, if you aks me) and then a long on Cerus Corp. (CERS), them people who market a system called INTERCEPT, which is "designed to enhance the safety of donated blood components." Even though the "two" part of the ol' one-two hurt 'im just a bit, the AKS play had enough change left over to leave 'im with a total of 1.82%!

          Gator-dude, Doug & Dio round out the rest of the gainers today. Congrats, all!

          • Hey Rob...

            Just wondering if I could still continue putting picks in for the POTW.

            I had to clear my mind of the market for a couple of months and take care of some other obligations.

            TIA

              Of course you can, Dakat! Although you just missed entering this week's contest by a hair, you can always enter again next week.

              Welcome back! We've been missing you and your HUGE picks.

                  all about ME

                  It looks like ME continued on its recent downtrend since the IPO earlier this year. Here's the chart: http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=me&...d=p61444379530

                  It has a possible chance to end this downtrend when the market goes up this week. As a matter of fact, I think it will trade in the $17 range this week. GO ME!!!!!

                    Sorry, there, Ray. In all the excitement I somehow forgot to enter your stake in the spreadsheet. Thanks for lettin' me know. I got you all fixed up now.
