Gump Great contest. Well I finished in 6th place. I never thought that I would finish above the 40th place when I entered my picks. I am serious. I was simply putting all of my eggs in one basket in case that particular area did well. Man what a stroke of luck. I could have put it all in Bio stocks. Tech stocks. Or could have put it in the Dow stocks and pretty much bet on a 20% return or better with that field. But at the last minute I decided to put it in the wildest area on the net. "Internet stocks". I never in a million years thought that it would do as well as it did. Much less almost 90% profit without even taken selling. I learned that maybe just maybe position trading is much better for the overall profit taking in the market. This contest was a lot of fun. Lamar
