...should have smoe really good gains for the group as a whole. If the tariffs go bye-bye along with the low starting point, we may see smoe of the best gains since this contest began in 2012.
A lot of beta so far, only one person, SurfinxHI, didn't "shuffle" last update. Moves of 2 or even 3 dozen spots weren't unommon! February draws to a close, how are you folks doing?

Good... (as to extension of deadline) ...'cause my ____'s still dropping.
items to note so far:
1) I wish I had picked short SQQQ
2) There are both long and short positions for Tesla and Tilray (pot stock)
can you extend the deadline until december 31st of 2019? I think I can find a stock that will do great next year if I have 364 days to think
I play the same stock every year and have won twice with it, on odd years, even years have been down

Another way of looking at it is:
Betting a stock falls means it's worth fewer dollars
But
Betting the dollar down is it worth fewer what? You don't specify so a position can't be opened.
There are ETFs for both long and short the dollar index as well as individual world currencies versus the dollar.
I shot you a PM, I hope you can pick a substitute in time.
I'm in, I missed 2018.

With the head start December Drop, most pickers this year ought to be positive, unless shooting for the last place consolation prize

And to think I almost went with GE.
I did GE, but shorted my other pick to balance out to about zero gain.
