Well this is about it for the 2024 Biotech Values Charity Stock Picking Contest. There will be a final report after the close of markets on New Year’s Eve, but with only a single day of trading (and historically a very quiet one), I think the story won’t change that much from today.
This last week wasn’t one for lots of big swings either. The NASDAQ Composite showed a respectable +0.8% gain, as did the NASDAQ Biotech Index with +0.6%. The individual stocks were pretty much “Not much to talk about", with a range from -16% to +29%. The average portfolio gained +$570 for the week, though YTD the average is underwater by -$2.3k.
At the moment, TOMATO’s top rank for YTD (+$49k) seems unassailable, with a lead of $15k over second place BLADERUNNER. However, the second through fourth positions are still in play, with a spread of $3.1k. BULBAMAN had a bad week, moving him from second down to fourth. JR_95 turned in the best return for the week (+$5.8) which improved his YTD standing ( a $3k loss for the year) from eighth to seventh.
The final report will include the overall performance for all the portfolios’ holdings, a few comments on the year, and a “so long, and thanks for all the fish” finish.
