One of these years I'll get lucky and make it into the top ten.

Happy New Year to all!

LukeMarshall · December 31, 2014 12:30PM

I think im just gonna watch this year...

Happy 2015 to everyone, and best of luck to the participants.

Thanks Wingsrule

TwoSides2aCoin · January 1, 2015 1:09AM

<< $9000 gold coins in hand >>

I can think of a few dozen off the top of my head that $9K wouldn't even make a downpayment on.

But… with that said, I would still agree 100%

CNote · January 1, 2015 2:16AM

Man, I missed the deadline! If there's any way I could participate again, I'd love it- I frequently talked to my wife about it, and it really made her open her eyes and ears more.

So, if I can sneak in, I'd like to split equally

AZN
NVO
TWTR

Wingsrule · January 1, 2015 6:59AM

And they're off!

renman95 · January 1, 2015 8:45AM

Again, thanks wingsrule.

I'm noticing more single entries this year....swinging for the fence as it were.

Well I'm aiming to do better than last year.

GLTA!

seebelow · January 1, 2015 10:41AM

Even though he missed the deadline, in the spirit of the holiday season, I'm all for allowing CNote to participate. .....unless he wins. Ha. Kidding. Good luck all!

This is actually a nice learning experience for me. I have not heard of some of these companies or funds and it is fascinating to see how volatile some are.

hopsin · January 3, 2015 5:42AM

<< 1/4 cvs health (cvs)
1/4 discover financial services (dfs)
1/4 northrop grumman (noc)
1/4 vanguard reit index fund reit shares (vnq)

I am playing the trend of continuing growth in healthcare, banks/consumer finance improving with rising interest rates, an uptick in defense spending due to the recent elections, and I am sticking with what works in real estate, along with the dividends-which are being added to our YTD gains, no? >>

Please reinvest my dividends as part of the contest...cvs pays a dividend on 2/2 dfs pays on 2/20 vnq will pay 3/29 noc on 3/17...add em up to the 9,000 start

Baley · January 7, 2015 2:23AM

<< Day 1 results:

That is some volatility! Going to be an interesting year...

renman95 · January 7, 2015 1:55PM

My tactic this year is to start near the bottom, you know, give everyone a chance and then slowly move back up to the top.

So far I have executed my plan with flawless precision.

DrBuster · January 7, 2015 9:54PM

Ha! Right there with you renman! Go long!

Wingsrule · January 10, 2015 7:04AM

Huge moves in the first 10 days of the new year. And for the mathematically challenged, exactly 50% of the contestants are making money so far.

And who woulda thunk that Silver would be the top performing metal so far?

Not for long. I think I may have taken your spot as of yesterday.

Now that my 'flash to trash' segment of the journey is nearly complete, and in only the first month, I have just over eleven months to reclaim the top!

Baley · January 23, 2015 12:30PM

SurfinxHI · January 23, 2015 3:29PM
