So after a bumpy start, @greggles with REE is off on a crazy jumping with a lofty 39% today to close on $0.16 and clearly being a rotational winner out of the Trump Dump covid fiasco.
Good one Greg !

Finicky has been observed sitting on the fence.... which way will the wind blow... CAD way or RXL way...

I know it's only early days so far but just a quick peek at the competition.

 

[greggles]

Crikey! @Knobby22 and I have both ends covered with the rest of the punters all bunched up between -20% and +20%.

I have a feeling it's going to be an interesting month.

better cover your tail, g-man, there's a few nipping at your heels.

 

[frugal.rock]

Mate, there's no nipping at the heels... @Springs on GIB has gone from position 26 to just absolutely chomp and devour all competition... WOW, well done Springs with diamonds on the soles of his shoes...

I briefly saw the leader round the first turn but feel I will have much mud on my goggles before the second. Good going leaders.

I said this month was going to be an interesting one. Leading the competition early makes it virtually a certainty you won't win unless the stock you're on goes completely gangbusters.

@Springs is going to be hard to beat this month with an announcement like that. 36m at 3.97g/t from 4m is pretty impressive. You don't have to dig far to get all that gold.

 

[finicky]

@Springs gee getting that ore processed will be the big hurdle - not
I think I am going to at least skim the compulsory posts that punters make about their picks before the monthly comp kicks off, not after it ends like I tend to do. Pretty sure that Edjudina location would have at least pricked my interest.

 

[Springs]

Thanks guys / gals great day for GIB today it’s only early in the month plenty of days left for a catch up but I think once news sets in it might go a lot further cheers Springs

good stuff @debtfree

do you ever roll these entries over into to see what they look like the second month, noticeable several picks where the call was a few days/weeks early and in the second month the stocks ran well
just wondering if there's value for some in seeing that

Someone mentioned this a little while ago and I thought this might be interesting as well.

I started, then realized how much time it was consuming as last year Comp there were 364 trades x 3 months data = over 1,000 entries to be made and calculations, then this year on top of it and no data feed doesn't help. My time was needed elsewhere.

I did start with this year's January's results and I noticed the delayed for them by 1 or 2 months was worse overall then I realized the XAO was down for those next 2 months by a considerable amount so no surprise there the same again with April, the market was up so were share prices. My thoughts at that time was, Market down for the delay picks by a month or two so will the share returns and visa versa when the market is up.
There are exceptions naturally that buck the trend but remember, when looking at some of the excellent returns some months if they delayed buying then by 1 or 2 months they would have missed out on them.

 

[Dona Ferentes]

All sounds too complicated, and, besides, it's just a competition. Low barrier to entry, negligible consequence to the outcomes. A snapshot of people's thinking, in the days leading up to selections.

I tend not to hold / commit to what I choose; more an enhanced version of a watchlist. And what others select is fascinating. What is interesting is whether the ASF collective wisdom outpaces the market.
