I missed it! I haven't checked in since about a month ago and I missed it! My picks were CYMI and NTEG, if there were any way to still get in. But I understand. Big Brother

>>I find it kind of interesting that no one is shorting a stock for a contest pick<< Allright, please give me GTW short. Reason - levitation can't go on forever, tho it would have been better to get last week's prices. For a long, give me BT. It seems to me that the market is assuming the current crisis will have the same effect on banks' balance sheets as the Latin American debt crisis, but the exposures are orders of magnitude apart - for now. If Japan really tanks, then BT along with the other banks with huge Japan exposures (on and more importantly, off balance sheet) will see a return to the prices at the time of the Latin America write-offs. In the case of BT, that was around 40. I am thinking of BT for my IRA - 5% is a nice yield for a money center bank these days. But I'm not buying it yet, not in this environment.
