KELLYBROWN9:

Excuse me if this is a dumb question, but is there one Annie or two Annies in this game? 

 

 

Not a dumb question. Either aliasannie or anniecolby are the D'Annies. You can merge their choices as it is I dont need to play as both. Or boot em for nondisclosure? 

 

Welcome Bluecallbox.  Thanks for joining us and good luck.

The open is a little higher today.  Oil and other commodities continue to be weak which makes any rally more difficult.

There are 7 players today, so 110 points will be rewarded at the close of the markets.  Good luck everyone.

Ya , know peter we should tell the others what is going on here !

I felt so bad about it and peter did forgive me ......... I think , LOL and the same thing happened when I was sure coin was going to go up and I lost a ton on that stock too . I learned not to give stock tips any more .

Everyone knows Aesop's fable about the tortoise and the hare.  That same concept can be applied to the stock market.  To test the debate over the correct approach to investing, I have put our participants into two teams; the Turtles and the Rabbits.  The groupings are based on the results from the 310 stock picks we have made so far as well as the frequency of player participation.  You may be suprised by the team you are initially on.  Note, players may be traded at a later date based on future pick results compared to the competition (if you are a Turtle and your new picks are ranked really high or really low, you may get traded to the Rabbits).

Hopefully this will make our game more competitive and more enjoyable. 

Good luck everyone.

Ready?
