I have positions in all of my picks except for JNJ.

It would be interesting to see if any of the players above put any real money behind their picks. Otherwise this seems like an exercise in futility..

I think it would be nice if maybe you can give more insight to on the share history of the stocks maybe from week to week or month to month or a graph showing the trend.

I’m still impressed that you’re ahead of the S&P 500, Nice work!

FT,

It would be great if you could post what all of the picks were by each participant and a one line summary why each participant chose one of the stocks – best performer, worst performer, whatever it is. It could prove interesting to see what went into each thought process.

Thanks for the link. Accounting for dividends, I am still outperforming the S&P 500 year to date. Whoo-hoo ;-)

FP, thanks! You’ve been doing really well with your picks. Do you have real money in them?

MoneyEnergy, Yes, Hangfeng has been cash flow positive since 2007 (http://www.stockhouse.com/tools/?page=%2FFinancialTools%2Fsn_financials.asp%3Fsymbol%3DT.HF%26subnav%3Dcashflow)

Has Hanfeng even made any profits yet?

I like your picks – I’ve looked at them all in the past too, even wrote about Hanfeng Evergreen… I think they’ll all do well over the long haul.
There’s a lot of good choices in the Canadian market; hard to narrow them down to just four. TransCanada and TransAlta are pretty good; I also really like Shoppers; and Rogers; and I’ve been meaning to get some Husky too, but haven’t yet.
