squawk box contest

[gbm]

anybody see the contest? they give you a million play dollars and the winner at the end (about 2 months)gets a maserati.

after one or two days the contest leader has 87 million. I'd say the contest is allready over. what did he buy? I can't even guess.

I entered it, haven't been able to get in to the website. Do you mean 8.7 million?

 

[mickj]

The leader has 1.3 Million.

1.3 million? damn!

87 was posted but soon corrected to about 1.4 million. plus 40% in a week is still phenominal. i wonder if the winning trade details will be shown at the end of the contest? they should be.

I remember that in high school we did the stock market game with $100,000. I remember the winning teams were big time short sellers and day traders.

I bet this guy is doing the same.
