Well, thanks to the tech stocks’ performance, the NASDAQ Composite still eked out a miniscule profit for the week amidst a general downward trend, not sparing the biotech composite indices, down over -2.6%. But the Contest portfolios were generally in the black, adding +$980 to the portfolio average for the week.
TOMATO's one week reign as the YTD performance top dog over BULBAMAN was short-lived. BULBAMAN’s holding the top weekly performing stock, VKTX, along with TOMATO’s choice of HROW, which basically gave back all of its gains from the previous week, flipped their positions in the YTD return chart so that BULBAMAN has returned to the top spot, with a YTD return of +$101k, $20k separating them from TOMATO.
CRVS continues to climb, but Yahoo reports no new news,
VKTX is up on news, with headlines like, “Viking Therapeutics Skyrockets After Dealing A Blow To Eli Lilly's Obesity Triplet”:

[Even the Motley Fool is piling on with stories about VKTX, in their classic, “If you bought it the first time we mentioned it, you’d be a millionaire by now,” fashion. Right. Of course everyone bought just the right stock at just the right time, and forgot all the losers we recommended along the way. 20/20 hindsight in cherry-picking is a great sales tactic for their newsletters.]
