Greetings To All:

The poster who is known as Flakey has publicly insulted the Munchkin Man's stock picking ability on another forum.

But that's okay.

The Munchkin Man's stock picks have not exactly set the world on fire lately.

The Munchkin Man has forgiven Mr. Flakey for his transgression.

At the same time..............

The Munchkin Man herewith challenges Mr. Flakey to a duel.

This is a friendly duel.

This is a stock picking duel.

Here are the rules:

The Munchkin Man will pick 5 stocks.

Mr. Flakey will pick 5 stocks.

The contestant whose 5-stock portfolio shows the greater percent gain by the close of the last stock trading day of 2007 will be declared the winner.

The contest commences on the date of Monday, August 27, 2007.

Here are the Munchkin Man's picks:

May the best man win.

Good luck to all.

Best Wishes,

Munchkin Man

But you need twenty stocks. Can you fill out your list so that the playing field is even for all participants?

Best of luck to you and all!

Peace and love,

Flakey

Flakey and Munchie welcome y'all with open arms and wish best of luck to all!

I DO HOPE that all contestants are bookmarking this post and/or keeping a hard copy of their portfolios for future reference.

I will be giving periodic reports of mine and Munchie's results, probably on a monthly or quarterly basis. You other folks are certainly welcome and encouraged to do likewise.

Peace and love,

Flakey

I used 20 stocks, the contest requirement, in any percentage of allocation (you're NOT REQUIRED to 'equal-weight' the portfolio), and I put them up on M*Star as a watch portfolio which presumes a starting base of $10K.

For purposes of simplicity all contestants so far have placed their entry portfolios on a 'buy and hold' basis, otherwise you must account for expenses and tax consequences if you do any trading during the run of the contest.

Good luck!

Peace and love,

Flakey
