Want to try again?

Same rules as last time "Here's 10 Grand .... Go buy up to 4 stocks right now and post the stock symbol , number of shares and price you paid today."

Let's make one small change. Instead of 6 months, let's go with 3.
This one ends at the closing bell on October 29, 2009.

I'll make my picks this evening, after the market closes (since it's easier to get a price)

Bank of America (BAC) @ $14.79 = 676 shares .Yes, all my eggs in one basket !!!!:doh:

Ken Lewis ,the CEO is a smart guy and due to retire in the next couple of years . You will see him run this company way up in the profit margin . He holds a ton of option shares and wants to cash in at the maximum possible .
I hold quite a bit of this in real life and it will continue to do well .

OK, I did a quick look.
I'm up $567.

If I kept my same picks from the first contest, I'd actually be down about $120.

BigAl is up around $1800.

A couple more weeks...
I'm only up $197. If I kept my picks from the first contest, I'd be up $2748 for this period.

BigAl is up $2567.

I have not participated in this round. Sorry, I guess I missed it.

But that said, I'm pretty much betting on another "correction" in the market because I see stocks as over valued. JMO
