To quote a famous fictious nuclear power plant owner: Hi-larious! After i quit complaining about how pennies are not fair- reminds me of that fedex commercial, at the cost cutting meeting with the hand gesture, on tv now.

It is of little consequence- a free overstocked copy of a book you will never get (i am still waiting for my book for placing in june06 sim), and the bragging rights of a little "weekly winner" anonymous avatar icon (still waiting for my win the week before previous- 8/04 thread) I have backed this site for quite awhile, perhaps naively.

Instead of calling Thierry out in public like this, i have instead tried private messages. To no end, now i sound like (shudder) booyahoo. I have had the chance to talk to a few really cool people on this board, and still think Cramer is as close to straight talk your gonna find on the street. but now having gradutated to actual money, i think i will spend my research time on how I can make more money, as opposed to some "look at how smart i am" picking contest. In any event, enjoy, best regards and good luck.

Man you do sound bitter for not getting those books, Thierry plzz send them out.Not everyone looks at the contest the way you think they do.For some of us it serves as a learning tool and to sharpen our skills before we graduate.

I think for educational purposes we should include the reasons why we are picking a particular stock too would that make it the contest meaningful enough?

I'll take MECA---oversold,Bullish Harami on Friday hopefully a reversal soon...

Ka-Ching !!!! :D

CRM Salesforce is under more competitive pressure than ever before and yet its fundamentals are improving, the firm beat consensus estimates across the board.

Still money to be made here !!
