* 1 STOCK - 1 WEEK * WEEK 7 RESULTS John Carr debuted in our contest by winning and by posting the single largest percentage gain yet: 31.33%. While it is tempting to discount his great percentage performance since it was a low priced stock, his gain for the week is also the second largest in absolute terms. An overall great pick. We could all use ones like that every week. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! Alan Lee takes second for the week (13.26%) and passes me as No. 1 overall, (19 points vs. 18 points) even though I came in third this week (8.62%). Wayne becomes the third person to reach double digit points (10). Tom Pope finished solid at fourth. Our 1/4 point trio (Virgil, Brian, and Chris Loe) wrapped up the top group for the week. Chris came from well down to squeek through on the top side. Jackay topped the NSF group and was the only short down for the week. Dmccoach, Alex, Zakrosa, Ketan, Srvhap, Wiseowl, AT, and Techinvest played musical chairs, most gaining slightly (except Dmccoach - who dropped from the top group) but remaining down for the week. Greg, Dale, John, and Jermoney wrap up the group with the "I thought I said short" picks... I just cannot resist: VVUS just couldn't manage to grow; ended the week limp. The group was down both in real and percentage terms. The average pick was down $0.86 and the indivdiuals in the group were down around 1/3 of 1 percent on average. The weighted average was down over 10 times as much at -3.22%. Only 6 of the 21 stocks were up for the week and 3 of the 6 were up only 1/4 point. 3 of top 5 places were shorts. Overall, things still look pretty weak. Tried to mention everyone. Hope I didn't offend anyone. Good luck to all next week. Troy Name Pts Pick Bet Date Price Current Change Pct.
