Scott, can you please tell us how you are calculating these winners and losers? From what I can tell you are just drawing them out of a hat.

For instance you say if the contest ended today that Fudd would have won with +7.36% when in reality he is actually behind -7.9%. Can you explain this?????

Ok Scott .. I'm trying to understand why you post a top 10 list and everyone is in the RED. Unless this statement : "We will publish the top five performers on a daily basis. After market close on Feb. 28 the contest is over, and we will post the winners on this thread." means the top performers on a individual stock bases and not a daily running portfolio total cause some of the ports on your list are down over 20 % from the start. If this is how it is ... say so, but please explain to me and the thread how you can come up with a winner without using a running total of the portfolio. Just trying to clear up any misunderstandings. Thanks, Woody
