2019 NZ Stock Picking Contest

[Oliver Mander]

Well, that was an interesting couple of weeks...and that's even before yesterday's shenanigans. For the first time in living memory, I think we have TWO brokers in the top 5!!! Well done to Craigs INvestment Partners and Hobsons Wealth...that means of course there has been quite the change at the top. SML affected a few, but it was the rise of the classic blue chips that has had the biggest impact - MFT, MEL, FPH, etc.

On the 'cat v dog' front, this has greatly helped sylvester pull out a bit of a lead over the beagle...MFT has been kind to me too.
