Congratulations to Purple XS2, Crom and Iggy_Pop for taking out the top three places in the October 2012 stock tipping competition!

What is it with stocks with ASX codes beginning with AV this month?! A curious co-incidence indeed.

Purple XS2 finished the month with an enviable 70% return with AVX, beating second placegetter Crom, whose selection AVQ returned an impressive 58.33%. Rounding out the top three for October was Iggy_Pop with AVB, which returned an equally impressive 52.44%.
