MoneyAM Stock-Picker of the Year 2004 Competition.

So who really is the best stock picker amongst the MoneyAM users!

Our users simply had to choose any 2 London Stock Exchange (LSE & AIM) stocks which they thought would be the best performer in 2004. The MoneyAM user who picked the stock which increased the most (%) from all the MoneyAM user submissions would become the winner. If there was a tie for first place (two or more users choose the same stock) then the winner would be the one whose second stock performs the best, the second prize would go to the next person who chose the same winning stock but whose second stock was the second best performing etc.

Congratulations. I looked at them today (due to your posting) and they are about 4 fold, ie about 300% up, maybe more, but its hard from a graph to judge the precise price at the start of the year. I assume MXC was your choice.

Do you know what the start of year price was?

It's a bit of fun for me following this. I am not even in the competition as I wasn't using MoneyAm too much at the start of the year.

Good luck.

Crystal,

I think they were around 0.9p but not too sure. (I bought a small trading batch at 0.8p and sold at 4.4p so happy enough - most of my investment is LTBH). Good long term prospects though been heavily ramped recently. Will look at them again in the future no doubt, still on the watchlist. Anyhow, about 6 of us have them in the comp and my other share is taking a bath (Medisys)!

Bullshare

OST which you list as 100% down in fact changed its name to
MXC and is over 300% up so IMHO should be top of the list not bottom!!


EDIT: since posting the above, seen fundamentalist made the same point earlier.
My SIPP holds a good few of these and his post is correct as is mine - still well over 300% up since retracing from 400%+

Share dealing is a strange business. Mine (Antonov) are tipped on the Evelyn's Hair and Investment site!

From a chart, your's seemed to be more like 0.8, maybe even 0.75 at the start of the year.

Why still no sign of MXC (was OST) in the listings
(Over 300% up!)
or have I missed it?

Only 8 more places to go!

Only 7 more places to go!

Only 6 more places to go!

Still waiting for Peter Cox to do his 2003 Le Mans winning driving magic to a crowd of Paris motorshow reporters!

Guess we are still waiting for Peter Cox to win over the press, as the share buying public doesn't seem to think too much of todays announcement confirming production plans for both 5th generation Antonov Automatic Drive, and Dual Clutch Antonov.

Hmmmmmmm. Something seems a bit strange with the list. BLR and CPL in 3rd and 4th place??? And EEN rising 28,000%???


Cue IanT.

Hil,

Will get the tech boys to take a look.

Thanks

Ian

I like to keep you on your toes, Ian. I couldn't bear the thought of you sitting back, supping your cup of coffee, thinking that everything was running ticketyboo.

:o)

Hil,

How did you know that was what I was doing :)

Ian

Feminine intuition!

:o)

MXC (was OST) is on the list as a zero % gain/loss.
This has to be way out as I have it in my real portfolio
and it has been a 3 to 4 bagger since January 2004!

I'm sure Ive posted this moan here b4.
Is there an anti MXC gremlin in the Moneyam computer somewhere...
