Today is the last day for entries. Let's go everybody.
That's a good point. I'm fine extending entries through Monday.Cutoff should be the morning of the 3rd. Market is off on the 2nd, so trading for the new year will commence the 3rd.
There was some talk of eliminating the penny stocks a year or two ago, so it's not who can get the best dice roll. So I thought we'd give it a shot.What was the reason for the price change? Leaves alot of microcap speculative plays off the contest.

Tomorrow's the last day. Get those picks in!
Guess I understand the premise. Just seems in the grand scheme, if asked to enter a contest, people will put their most speculative stock (Likely Bio, Tech or Energy) in here with the hopes it doubles or triples. It is nice to see what some people do throw out and their sentiment. Good Luck everyone.No penny stocks. but everyone picking a biotech. Not so different of a dice roll.

The last bit. But the S&P 500 hasn't opened the year up since 2013.Jed said:So I've been looking at TEVA and really like it. Looking for some advice:
If I was going to put say 10K into this stock and hold it long term, would you just buy it first thing tomorrow? Or does the market typically dip at the start of the year so wait a couple days, or is it mostly a guessing game?
Stock has to be above $5 (new twist this year). If you can get me something ASAP, I'll plug it in.ragincajun said:Crap to late to join up?

There is a link to a real time pricing spreadsheet in the original post where you can see how you are doing.pecorino said:My pick, ADPT, is up 11% already on day one. Is there anywhere I can go and see myself in the lead of this august competition, even if it just for today?
I looked into this and liked what I read about it. Started scaling in so I only have 300 shares, but I'm already up almost 25%. Great start!Invitae (NVTA Nasdaq) - Genetic Testing

Maybe I should have let you have TEVA. Woof.
Just coming in here to choose this one. Seriously considering initiating a position here.
(Also, :finger.
I bought a little TEVA. Honestly not so worried about it - generics should do well going forward.Maybe I should have let you have TEVA. Woof.
At least I can look down on jamny.
Well, INSY sucks (has been flat) but love me some CARA right now (up to $15 from $9).Glad I opted to actually buy CARA instead last week, already up 10% wouldn't help here, but a few hundred bucks helps over the holidays.For similar reasons... and I'll go with a company in some legal trouble right now INSY, Insys Therapeutics
I'm just all red.I've been wandering between black and red, but I'm not hurting the FBG total return too badly right now.
Got up over 100% today before falling back.GBT (Global Blood Therapeutics)
Do you feel all the bad stuff that happened last year is behind them now? Do you feel like earnings are going to be good?Train is about to leave the station on VRX. If the FDA will ever get off their butt, they will launch the best psoriasis drug on the planet later this month. Earnings FEB 28th. Good chance this doubles up or down by the end of March.
Well 4Q earnings really aren't going to matter that much, but 2017 guidance will be huge. I'm not sure how concerned people are about the debt that actually know the stock well, but many people (and rightfully so) are concerned with the growth rate. This thing has been tying to stop the bleeding for a while now. They've kitchen sinked a couple of quarters. They've missed so bad the last few times and lowered guidance so much this one truly would be disappointing to miss here, so I'm thinking a beat. Pearson and the previous regime basically had stocked inventory in warehouses and already claimed it as "revenue". But a lot of that seems to have gone. Salix is really picking up and B&L is truly a great company. Joseph Papa has sounded very confident (much different than a few months ago) over the last month. He mentioned stock price today for the first time ever. Earnings are Feb 28th, and this is almost guaranteed to move +\- 20% or more that day.Do you feel all the bad stuff that happened last year is behind them now?

I bought 500 shares yesterday because you say your in the industry and sound like you know what you're talking about.

I don't work for a medical provider, but I consider myself informed and researched as this is currently become the only sector I am invested in for all accounts. I feel it is that highly undervalued. If you can stomach this for a few months, you should be rewarded handsomely for it in the future.I bought 500 shares yesterday because you say your in the industry and sound like you know what you're talking about.

Before the end of the first quarter, I have led this entire competition and then, more recently, not so much. Is being down 60% in one day bad? BTW, I do not literally own ADPT. Very glad I wussed out.Wow Pecorino just blew me out of the water for Em Award!
