Contest Entry:

Tuesday Closing Stock Price: 440 (close)
Wed. Closing Stock Price: 385 (close)
Earnings: 0.26
Split: 3:1
Strategy After Split: Depends on time horizon, tax situation, and earnings report. For those playing it as a game, sell at 465 tomorrow, buy back within one month at 300 (or 100 post 3:1 split). For true believers, sell 10-20 percent of holdings, in hopes to buy back at 300 or below.

If earnings are good (>0.26) and revenues (1998 > $215 million), the institutions will be all over this thing on every significant dip.

P.S.--You can all look it up if you want. There has never, ever been a stock like this. But I guess no one is worried about that. Have a nice party.
