Hi Everybody! We have a winner! I'll be updating the Web Site on Saturday to show how everyone did, and announce our winner. I'm currently at work now. (I work the second shift).
Thank You to everyone who got involved in this silly game. I hope by playing this game it helped you get a little interested in how the Stock Market works.
OMG ahaha THATS TOTALLY AWESOME!!! Thanks again sooo MUCH!!! Ur games are sooo much fun, and get everyone together and meetin new ppl!! U have alot of awesome tubers for friends and subs and ALL THAT!!! U guys ALL Rock!!!! :)
(4/10/08) Alright, I'm just gonna say it... XL, my t-shirt size is XL! AT&T is a bargain hunters dream stock! I expect heavy trading on Friday afternoon. I may buy 10,000 shares myself, Ha!
I don't think we'll really know until I do all the calculating on Saturday, after the contest ends. Hopefully I'll have it done by Saturday afternoon.
Do you know the formula to calculate the percentages?
I don't know Lou, your calculator may give the error when the number crosses over into negative territory. That formula works with a little cheap calculator of mine. Try a different calculator. Hey, I made a spreadsheet to track the stocks, I can send the results after market close on Friday.
(4/9/08) Hey, I took a hit today to go DOWN 1.57%. Why is this good for me? Late week bargain hunters! That's why! Look out for the BULL MARKET! I got the BULL market cornered!

This has happened before. Nothing to worry about. Sometimes you just have to take the good with the bad.
That's the thing. When I'm logged in under my own screen name, it doesn't act like it's marked as spam, so it doesn't give me that option. When I log out, it's all marked as spam. I can unmark OTHER peoples comments that are marked as spam, but not my own. Go figure.
I'm starting it right now! 04-05-08, 1 PM EST (New Jersey time). I'm writing down all the names, cutting them up, and placing them in a hat. Then I'll build a web page listing all the names, and companies, and I'll place the link in the description area listing the 30 contestants.
Nope, you're not too late. Tonight after work I will place all the entrants names in a hat and pick out 30 random names. I was worried we wouldn't get 30 people, but we got more. Good Luck!

Okay, please see if this test works on your calculator. I can't seem to get it work on mine.
Last Friday a stock was at $52.00.
After 1 week, the stock is now at $52.20.
What is the percentage gain?

I don't think we'll really know until I do all the calculating on Saturday, after the contest ends. Hopefully I'll have it done by Saturday afternoon.
Do you know the formula to calculate the percentages?
LouRyder 3 years ago
Lou, I use -(100-(ENDING VALUE*100/START VALUE)). At close today(4/9/08), top 3 are Boeing, Merck and Chevron.
ArdieVerde 3 years ago
Ardie, I need help. Sometimes when I try to do my percentage calculations on my calculator, I get that "e" message. Can we do an example?
Example 1: Last friday, the stock was at $35.00. After 1 week, the stock rose to $35.90. So,
$35.90 (start value) MINUS $35 (end value) =.9, then DIVIDE by $35 (start value) = .025714285714. Then, MULTIPLY by 100 = 2.5714285714 %
BUT, when the increase is a smaller value, I get the "e" message. Like if the Stock goes from $35.00 to $35.20. Can you help?
