NEW GAME: If you could only pick one stock for 2023

[Charliesheen]

I learnt to repair my own clothes.

[stonedmegman]

I took drama as an elective in high school. Sometimes it creeps back into my world at unique times. Yay for your observation skills though.

on top of home economics and band? You go girl!

Home economics was a separate elective. Never played in the band.

Smart dudes took Home Ec to meet chicks!

Baritone sax worked better.

I'll stick with Kinder Morgan for another year. Turns out, both myself and Hydroseismic will both be working for them in Iraan starting this Spring. He's got a big seismic job there. Man, is he in for a cultural shock. Middle of fricking nowhere indeed.

[Animal]

Okay. So far we have:

RD picking Merck & Co. MRK
BTender picking Snowflake Inc. SNOW
Animal picking Archer-Daniels Midland. ADM
Hawkfan picking Amazon. AMZN
Pork picking SQQQ
Stonedmegman picking JRVMF
SaltyDog picking World Wrestling Entertainment. WWE
Antknot picking Tesla. TSLA
Rule34 picking Nutrien LTD. NTR
Biker picking Blackrock. BLK
Discomoon picking General Mills. GIS
Geist picking American Electric Power Co. AEP
Cheezy picking Netflix. NFLX
PeteRoseHairCut picking Cal-Maine Foods. CALM (it has a 5.6% dividend, holy shit!)
Charliesheen picking Costco. COST
HighnDry picking Burlington Coat Factory. BURL
Bluespruce picking Boeing. BA
CTC picking Kinder Morgan. KMI

Players can change their choices by posting in this thread right up until Jan 31st. At that point all choices will be locked in. If you want to play, but don't know what company to pick, toss out a product or some idea, and we will choose one for you. Disco has asked me not to let Howie play in the game, so he is not allowed.

The game will start Feb 1 (Wednesday) using prices on that were posted for the opening on that day. Same rules will apply in terms of dividends and splits, etc. If a stock splits, you will be adjusted the shares. If the stock pays a dividend, then you will give adjusted the shares in Nov or Dec. Each person will start with the number of shares it takes to purchase $10,000 of that stock on Feb 1 opening prices.

The winner will be the person that has the most value on the closing on Dec 29, 2023 (Friday).

You have to pick a stock that is listed on a major stock exchange that can be tracked with its ticker symbol.

Good luck boys!!

gets all cocky when she blows away the competition.

HOL UP it ain't February yet and I would like switch to NVDA. AEP is safe but this is more fun.

Hugs and kisses

I was thinking about it the other day on the terlit but forgot to post it.

[B-Tender]

My pick is up 13%
in the last 5 days. Good for me since I own it in real life, bad for the competition though.

Well, changed it in time which is all that matters.

I added it to my post above. I will have to check to see if I missed any others. I have my real list at the office, but i can't get there today. I just wanted to get the opening prices for today for as many as I could. That gets harder to find after the day is over.

I also added the dividend rate as of today for each stock. That is what will be added to each person in Nov or Dec.

Yeah. I am considering getting some KMI just for that reason. If they can just break even you can make 6%. Which anyone would take for an investment.
