2024 Yearly Stock Picking Competition

[airedale]

Need some early showboating from the lads in the top 5.

Much more entertaining than the nzx one. Quite few hovering minus20% as well. Seems like these folk have gambled thier wealth on low market cap junior resource plays. You love to see it. Was it buffet who said “liffium speculation is the path to guaranteed wealth”?

1st to 39th in less than a month, a new record!

I expect the unexpected in markets. We may get completely different results during 2nd half of this year.

Value my man, can you talk to me about your choices here
- strong Oz dollar etf,
- ultrashort the Naz
- short Oz equities hedge fund
- chicken
- petfood

I love it, but there might be some deep personal issues to work through here....
Seems like tinfoil hat, and hole up with shotgun and ammo in grandadies cabin in the mountain stuff.

This is sort of the opposite of 777 all Oz bank selection.

LRS was one of my picks & was trading about 28c at the start of the comp. Wasn't actually a holder then as wanted to see lower before entering a position. I should have said I sold on day 1 & now I do own at 17c. One of those would have could have should've moments, but at least it hasn't cost me any money, just pride. 😅
