My picks closed the year at a gain of +9.8% as compared to when I bought them yesterday.

They gained 4.5% after I bought them yesterday, and another 5.3% today. Some of the gain today, though, was due to end-of-quarter tape-painting for VLCT, which is likely to dissipate in the next session.

Anyway, this experience serves as a reminder to buy the January Effect picks before the close of the year.

Happy New Year, everyone.

Not much of a JE2002 as I had feared. Here is the tally on my 4 picks figured from closing prices on 12/31 and 1/31:

algn +8.44%
bkhm -27.35%
kare +234.44%
lpac -7.99%
average is about +50%

kare saved the day.
