Maybe we should alter the name of this thread to "The investor is challenged" what with people talking to physiatrists, bone throwers and all manner of sangoma's  ;D

Seeing as you are going for the RMB Midcap next, how about adding it to the comp leaderboard like you've done STX Indi and 40?

Next year all ETFs will be on the leaderboard. I'll automate it. If I can find price history going back to April I'll add the midcap index, but so far I've only found 3 months worth of daily closes.

jaDEB, while you drown some sorrows with the fishies, you're currently the realistic leader of the challenge  :TU:

Thanks Patrick ...  8)

I wonder what happened to the "other" site's competition. I suppose forum is so busy with CFD's & ALSI trades they have forgotten about it. But yes, each to his own.

Funny how some investors with decent portfolio.s could not resist the temptation of adding NUT as some stage. :LHST:

To me the biggest disgrace in this competition would be to own a penny stock. But then some will do anything for a win even if it means nothing.

See Nimz hit a luck with his CRD.

The one share that has amazed me is FGL

7 day change   -2.5%
30 day change   17.2%
90 day change   4.7%
6 month change   101.3%
1 year change   1470.0%

and I can,t find out why

FGL was 10c 19 Sept 2012, now 160c +/- 1500 % increase. Did you read yesterday about Naspers. If you bought R100k on its listing 19 years ago, it would be R26 mill today...

 :frustrated:..dammit thought you had FGL in real life and is smilling. Orca is fighting with the Taxman, hopefully he will win + CML turns and goes up. I would rather he kicks my  ::) ss in the competition , i.e. CML goes to R95 by year end, cause then he makes real money as he owns a cr  ;D p load of CML. I do not own SGL in real life  :'(

I could have bought a brand new Corsa cash with the money I lost in a week. I haven't checked the challenge in 2 weeks now. At this stage, I actually don't care if my CML drops to 2700 (price bought). That way I can get out without being penalized.  :-[
I started here with nothing and still have most of it left.
