BULBA,

Those guys up over 28% in one month must be cheating.

27.338% is OK.

;-)

Seriously, those are stunning returns for one month.

Perhaps, we should all quit and call it a year.

Congratulations to the top 10 and those with good returns that can't even make the top 10.

Biggest gainers were stellar, while biggest losers were minimally in the red. Signs of a good market?

2/10/12 Contest Update
A breather for biotechs from their 2012 blistering pace was inevitable. So it’s not surprising both the Contest median and NBI dropped for the week. In particular, ARRY’s pricing of its secondary share offering at a substantial discount depressed the Contest median. ARRY is held in 12 Contest portfolios.
At Friday’s close, the Contest median was up 20.65% YTD (vs. up 22.78% YTD a week ago). In comparison, the NBI was up 13.86% YTD (vs. up 15.41% YTD a week ago), while the Nasdaq Composite Index was up 11.47% YTD (vs. up 11.54% YTD a week ago).
PGO’s portfolio remains in first place with a 38.16% YTD gain. GENE’s portfolio had a good week, moving into second place with a 34.89% YTD gain and helped by a 20% position in PYMX.OB, ROBERT’s portfolio, up 31.68% YTD, jumped into third place.
At Friday's close, all 38 Contest portfolios were still in the black with 28 of the 38 beating the NBI.
Below is the Top Ten list. Also below are the Top 5 & Bottom 5 Stocks ranked by % Gained and % Lost for the week (foreign stock prices are not converted to US$ in these two tables).
Portfolio adjustments: None
Have a safe & fun weekend biotechies!
