Playing the ready made port so far.  Made about $400 and I added two stocks this a.m. Let's see what happens now.

Good luck.

I played the risky portfolio, and added some of my own.  The pre-picked stocks didn't so as well as the ones I picked.  I would have only have made a few hundred dollars if I stuck with the pre-picked portfolio, but have made over $3,000 so far.  Some of the stocks in the pre-picked portfolio were good and I never would have thought of buying them, some I have had to get rid of.  I am still wondering what to do with TLT though.  Anyone have have any ideas about TLT?

Thanks for the info.

sell and buy pde,s,msft, siri, xmsr........all pending mergers or buying companies.....hope for the best.....made 4 grand on s in 4 hours on monday..........

i would try picking up disney, ive had it about a week its a slow and steady stock but its on the uphill

Sounds interesting ... Maybe I should have considered picking up a ready-made portfolio when this contest began harder.

Oh well... I'm going downhill just fine all by myself.  LOL!!

Of course going downhill without benefits of skis makes for a bumpy journey ... <VBG>

It was doing fine by itself in the beginning....then I added a couple of stocks!!! KaBoom....now under 100K! So much for my stock picking ability! Still hanging on to most of it though cause it's a long time to end of contest.

In my pre-selected portfolio was a stock DBC.  It has been the best stock!!  I never heard of it so I never would have bought it, but it is the best stock in my portfolio.  In checking it out, I think it will be a good stock for this contest, and you may want to look into it.  It was down yesterday so it may be a good time to buy, as I think it will continue to go up.

 I chose to make my own, maxed out on Apple when it was low, have made a couple hundred,added some orbit, and today i put in 800 Tata Motors stock, i bet they will sky rocket when Jaguar and Land rover take off again, plus when they release the Tata Nano, for only $2,500 that car will be HUGE !

Whats with the limit thing, do you have a cap on how many trades or how much money you can use a day???
It doesnt let me complete some of my trades.

Also, what kind of rewards are they talking about when they say that Loyalty points are redeemable for rewards...?

I like the ready made portfolio too.  I used about half of them in mine and changed the other half.  Up about $5,000.  Hope my luck continues.
