Ok, Hot Potato was fun.
Lets play again with it open to all. Since everyone will be in and it'll be tougher to win we'll make the prize:
A  Baseball Card Collection worth 12,000 e$ and goes up in value 3% a month!
So pick what stock you think will go down the most PERCENTAGE-WISE tomorrow and post it here.
-Stock symbol must show up in Yahoo finance
-You cannot duplicate another players pick (So get it in early if you really want it)
-All picks must be in by 8pm EST

8 PM EST?! What up wit dat?! Some of us ainna even lookin at da chawts until 9 PM!  I don't see the reason for the time cutoff. What is the starting price for each stock? Today's 4 PM closing price? The last after hours trade price if there was one? The opening price tomorrow? My pick woulda been UARM, if there wasn't that there silly cutoff time. What kind of info am I gonna find out at 8:01 EST that is gonna make a difference anyway?   |

Lately I have invested opposite of my own judgement and for some damn reason that has worked enough to bring me into the black this month, lol.
I got lucky the day before with ARWR, and knew it had to go back down, too much of a spike in such a short time (like one hour and it jumped a dollar on me, lol). |
