Has anyone ever bothered to make a note of how the top Five most popular picks each year have performed?
Some astute winner last year made exactly that entry under the pseudonym of Top Dog. Check out how Top Dog did in last year's competition.
I was going to replicate that trick, (proof you can teach an old dog new tricks ?) this year but looking at the five and even ten most popular choices for 2018 I find myself already well positioned.

Good luck to you all!!

I'll also put the most popular picks on the website shortly.

My apologies.
Thanks for your speedy reply.
I did not notice (1) the scroll down arrow on the spreadsheet. and (2) I did not type in my nom de guerre in the yellow box.
Thanks to SKO I may make a reasonable start to 2018.
Thanks and regards

Hi ratkin...
- Have added in a broker pick called "Sharetrader Top 5" - so that should appear in the summary section shortly.
- Have also coloured the broker picks orange in the main list to make the benchmarks easier to see.
- and have made the navigation / placement work a bit better so it fits on the width of a screen...

Sylvester have you tested this in Chrome? For me it doesn't work - I get a vertical + horizontal scrollbar only and a message in the console "refused to display https://login.live.com ... in a frame ... ".

But it works fine in IE.
Funny - I am using Chrome and I can use the site (though its a bit slow ...)

I only use Chrome...:-). But it doesn't work on chrome mobile...I will look at ways to make it better. This cat is ok at extracting and manipulating data but a bit kitten-ish on the web front...
