Contest

In January, 2009, we started an investing contest. A bunch of us began with $100K and posted our trades whenever we bought or sold. At the end of each month we reported our portfolio balances. On Jan 6, I bought 60,000 shares of GCE at $1.65, paid a $15 "trading fee" and was left with $985 cash. ** In March I decided I was tired of things financial ... and dropped out of the contest (tho' I still keep track of monthly balances). Today, I took a peek at what my portfolio would be: $248K Mamma mia! Why did I drop out #!@%&$? ** I had originally said WTN But they is both Canadian coal companies, eh? In fact, I alternate 'tween WTN and GCE in my personal portfolio.
