naw, this is only one afternoon - a year is a a long time - and market sentiment is unduly negative. Out there in the real world, conditions are not nearly this despondent, provided you are not selling second-hand cars. lol

There is a similar competition run by Moneyweb,also with no prize,just the knowledge that u forecast correctly.It got scores of entries including m'self.No on knows why we enter as most of us will end with egg on our faces,no where near the correct entry.With all that can happen in a year ,it will be more chance, than good stock picking abilities that throw up a winner.Note to Topgun;Have u noticed that the derivitives and some actual shares are are not usually correct by Friday 9pm yet? SBK seems to take longer being Friday and only puts the final Friday price on Saturday 10.30 am.So on Saturday morningi'll turn my entry back to zero on my watchlist.
