[...] In case you’re new here, I’ve been running a little bit of a fake tournament made up of teams of five stock picks as an experiment in investing. Some team rosters were selected intelligently, others randomly. We’ve gone from 32 teams five weeks ago to just two this week. The two remaining teams were Nick’s Picks, a group of five stocks selected semi-intelligently by yours truly, and Internet Slang, a sorta-random group of stocks chosen solely because their ticker symbols were internet slang terms like LOL or BRB.

[...] This tournament is starting to look like a golf match where everyone finishes over par. Seriously, would some of you teams start earning me some fake money already??? I mean, I’m gonna have to pawn the championship cup just to finish even here! [...]

[...] It was another sad week for Wall Street and for the Super Stock Pick Tournament. Every single team (even all the ones that have already been eliminated) finished down last Friday afternoon. So don’t think of the Final Four teams as the “winners” to this point in the tournament as much as they are the least losery. My searing commentary follows the latest tournament brackets. [...]

You gotta get a bunch of bloggers and do the same thing… then offer some sort of prize, that would be cool.

[...] With the Punny Money Super Stock Pick Tournament well under way, I thought it’d be interesting to see if any of you have tried your luck (or skill!) in the stock market. My own experience is limited to whatever index funds are in my retirement portfolio, but I do closely monitor market conditions and reallocate my money every once in a while. [...]

[...] It was a rocky road for the Sweet Sixteen of the Super Stock Pick Tournament this week. Only a quarter of the remaining teams finished up this week as you can see from the latest tournament bracket: [...]

[...] Let’s take a look at how the 32 starting teams fared after the first week of the Super Stock Pick Tournament. (The percentages you see are based on the one-week performance of each of the five stocks on the team. I add up the percent changes, but I don’t divide by five because then the numbers wouldn’t look as impressive. After all, what’s a tournament bracket without big numbers?) [...]
