Funny how my best performing stock is the one I threw in as a joke since it;s the one I work for.

I dont have any actually. But I was very tempted to buy when it was below $10. Our properties alone (MSG, Radio City, Beacon Theater, The Knicks, Rangers) are practically worth that value alone. We would have turned a profit this quarter is our CEO hadnt bought Newsday as a laugh for all the nasty things they said about him over the years.

Does anyone want to sell some options to me for WFC?
Greive, please make a "options trader" program that we can all use to write options for each other based on our own holdings. The rule would be that you can only write contracts for stocks the writer/seller owns.
When can you have that done by? Let's stop beating around the bush and make Stock Market PvP into a real game!

What!? That's why I've been reading everything he's said for the past 5 years! I thought he was the first hermaphrodite billionaire investor! =)

WFC is up 69% since March 6th when this started. What I genious I was to sell it after the first 17%.

It's baffling how a man who's made so much money could say such an ignorant thing. He obviously doesn't know a damn thing about electronics.

Well, we sure picked a good time to start this contest (and Slamz picked a very bad time to stash his cash under his bed). Makes you wish this was real money...
I've updated the portfolios in the first post. I'm working on an auto-updating webpage (or maybe app) that we can use instead, but it won't be ready before I leave this weekend. Speaking of which, I'm off on my honeymoon for nine days, and I won't have any internet access while I'm away. But you can post any trades here and I'll catch up when I get back.
Dustie is the champ so far (even without his WFC).
1 $128,507.98 (+28.51%) Dustie
2 $121,646.35 (+21.66%) Zephyrs
3 $119,536.11 (+19.54%) Vanraw
4 $110,306.89 (+10.32%) Grieve
5 $106,855.98 ( +6.86%) Venganza
6 $106,770.72 ( +6.79%) amins
7 $105,846.46 ( +5.85%) Breand
8 $103,608.30 ( +3.61%) Thudz

Oh yeah, and best performing stocks so far...
+61.97% C (Zephrys)
+61.86% WFC (owned by 4 of us...oh wait, I forgot Dustie dumped his.  )
+45.76% GRT (Maul)
+35.50% GE (Zeph again)
+31.52% CVC (I guess Breand doesn't spend ALL his time on game sites...)
That's pretty crazy stuff for 1 week.
Worst performing is ATHX at -15.81% (dragged Zephrys down).

Yeah ATHX will either do well today or crash ..
hopefully it goes up ...
Either way I only have 7K in it if I remember right, the big chunk of my money is in GE which is soaring (I thank Mr Buffet for that one)

If no one valued gold for it's relative rarity, and the only use of gold were for electronics and nothing else, gold would sell for a fraction of the current price. In other words, the supply of gold is many times greater then the demand required by the electronics industry.

The value of gold is inflated by the fact it's used to barter for the attention of the ladies. Warren Buffet is so rich he doesn't have to work for that attention anymore, wouldn't expect him to understand.
