Don`t get too excited Chasero, I was at the top of the list a week ago:( and still 3 to go.

Oh you picked TLG?

I have an open position on that as well :)

Too bad I can't choose when to exit in this game. Which is a shame.

Yep, it is in the `space`as they say with graphite, but also gold and Fe exploration.

Ah, and exiting well that`s another kettle of fish. Surprised you went in with AXE.

Congrats on being top of the pile................................today:D... and there`s still tomorrow

That killed my entire month's of profits!!

TLG I am stlll negative as well.. next few days need to be positive for me to break even this month.

Sigh, really bad month for me.
 
Moving into the back straight now, sgp has moved into third position. Well placed for the next few bends then a quick sprint to the finish line.

With the prospects of a $0.12c dividend next month underwriting the current price and every chance of further improvement, sgp appears well weighted to be in the finish come month end. :) Getting some trades out of the volatility also helps.
 
Well there goes all my gains on GLA lol.

Looking at those picks, god.. most of us are red. What a terrible month.
 
Only one of two shares in the green with less than 2 weeks to go. Resources are stuck in the mud and the financial sector has disappeared behind some greek accounting. REITs have suffered a setback but not to the same extent as the rset of the market....yet.

It looks entriely possible that this months top three could be represented by those picks that have dropped the least,
 
I don't think AXE is going to win at this rate. Well done for GLA, a nice island in the eye of the storm.
 
I'm entering next month for the first time.
What sort of % increases win it most months? looks like everyone is getting slaughtered this month. SYR is the only strong winner.
 
Last day of the month and if the international markets overnight are anuthing to go by there will likely be further tightening today.

Syrah has leapt from nowhere to grab a commanding lead, sgp is struggling to hold on to second place and now some penny dreadful has gone up $0.001 to grab third place and probably only needs to gain another $0.001 to snatch second place before close.
 
What a disastrous month May turned out to be for the ASF Stock Tipping Competition! :eek: It was so bad that only two entrants out of 44 finished in positive territory, so only two prizes will be awarded this month as a result.

Congratulations to kenny and nulla nulla for taking out the top two spots in the May stock tipping competition!

kenny finished the month with an extraordinary 117.05% return with SYR, beating out second placegetter nulla nulla, whose selection SGP returned 2.90%. Kenny's result is even more remarkable given the shocking state of the market during May.

Can kenny and nulla nulla please contact me via PM regarding their prizes.

Best of luck to all for the June competition!

Here are the final results for May:
