CY2024 XAO Prediction competition

[Dona Ferentes]

rule 8. To protect the early tipsters ( to a certain degree), (and in consultation with others) , a gap of 50 points between tips makes a lot of sense, even though it will restrict the number of entries. @debtfree will keep us updated with a spreadsheet every day or so . Hey, big shout out to him!

and Sean, ever the gentleman

 

[Dona Ferentes]

7850 - recessions are good for markets

7. Smartarses will be limited to 4 words. ... Fi, bo, na, chi.

What about dumb-boes like me, !!! will 3 words be acceptable !!

 

[farmerge]

In keeping with the zeitgeist, we should have a CY2024 XAO prediction (= guessing) competition, along the lines of previous years.

FUN
PRIZE MONEY
EDUCATIONAL​

1. Entries should be a whole number for the XAO close on the last ASX trading date, being 31 December 2024, and accompanied by 5 words maximum as to your reasoning for the prediction / guess.
2. A first prize of $100 will be offered by me. In the unlikely event of there being a tie, the money will be split 50:50.
3. Entries should be in by midnight Monday 01 Jan 2024 to attract full prize money.
4. Late entries will be accepted until midnight Sunday 07 Jan 2024, but only be eligible for $50 first prize.
5. A maximum of 50 entries will be accepted, on a first come basis.
6. I reserve the right to screen out entrants who utilise the Ignore button excessively.

Good luck to all. ... and keep posting to keep ASF a thriving site for Australian stocks and market related content.

Well not having a clue
I will try for 7660 in the guessing competition.
I did manage 5 words .

Another good bit of fun to be had.

 

[Knobby22]

Soft Landing will help greatly but US elections and maybe violence, but then a good finish.
So 8010.

10946! Bloody hell, the RIH is going bold again. I'm backing up the train on IOZ and friends.

 

[debtfree]

@rcw1 added ..... plenty of room for others

 

[Faramir]

8204

I have no reason why I choose this number. I can’t think 12 days, maybe even 12 hours ahead, let alone 12 months. I hope @frugal.rock and @Knobby22 don’t mind me being in between them. That’s the only good reason I can think of for choosing this number.

Thanks @debtfree for prompting me. I would have forgotten about this.

 

[farmerge]

You're in @Knobby22

Hey, hey the list is growing !!!!!

 

[Smurf1976]

6140 - Time for the bears.

 

[debtfree]

Thanks - @Faramir & @Smurf1976 are entered. Spreadsheet updated.

 

[IvoryWolf]

I hope you don't mind @Dona Ferentes but I think I know of a few that just might like to have a shot at a bit of cash.

@farmerge I know he loves cash. Let's not forget about @Miner, I don't want him to miss out on this one. Naturally @Telamelo would love to have a crack at this one. I want to see the thoughts of @Faramir on a 12 month time frame. And I would love to see @IvoryWolf thoughts for the end of next year, that would be interesting.

Yes DF, I know it's a bit late if you do mind .

Thanks for the invite @debtfree - this is a toughie:

7483 - midpoint range (18th September support)
