January 2023 Stock Competition Entries!

[divs4ever]

congratulations to the winner ( and those place-getters who kept it exciting right up to the end of the competition )

i was hoping to finish at least break-even ( zero ) but it was not to be

good luck everyone in February

And so you should be. Many apply but few are chosen.

But there's another chance in Feb, then March. And each month; keep those entries coming in, folks!

I will be striving to gain a couple of upward spots. Went from 2nd to good as last this month, admittingly was only fleeting at the other end of the ladder.

It's been a while since I got on the podium. 🥉

I did have a lucky streak a few years ago. Felt invincible 💪

It was good to eat humble pie for a while to sharpen those stock picking skills... 🥧

Just as revenge is a dish best served cold, Humble Pie always should be eaten while still warm.

Just a list of stocks down to the 50% mark that none of us picked last month that would have taken out the Comp if selected.

would Icon Energy have gotten over the 1 cent starting line , back on Jan. 1 st

however other competitors will delight that NONE of those stocks are on my watch-list(s )

It's just a quick scan Divs to see what we missed. I put in a minimum of 0.015 cents so if it went up 50% from 0.01 cent it would be 0.015.
Naturally you would need to check through the list to see if it would have qualified ...... to make sure it was 1 cent or over at start, to make sure it wasn't in a trading halt and so on.
A quick rough scan but good enough to review some stocks that outperformed us.

 

[divs4ever]

just the same it was very unlikely that i would have selected any of those shares ( in the comp. )

so it's all academic

cheers

Not a bad effort, I finished 4th after a disastrous last day..but where is my bro ???

Hey, bro! Sorry to vanish for the last week, it was a big one. Driving through floods then smashing a bull with the car, some inappropriate-for-forum-discusson events, and being flat out with work kept me away. Missed the end of the competition (well done on finishing well ahead of me after some time in a tit for tat battle) and missed on entering February, and my pick had a massive rally right after January ended (all smiles here though since I have all my money parked there).

But, I must say, next time you comprehensively beat me, focus on the others as well so you actually take a prize-winning position! My dropping the voodoo doll clearly helped you but you didn't properly take advantage of the opportunity.

Congratulations to the placeholders!
