INVESTOROFTHEYEAR COMP
Are you better off selling off 4 of your 5 shares within say the first month, or sooner, so you only pay 4 lots of commission and you thus end up holding just 1 share (assuming this is in the rules) and are there are any specific sectors you like more than others without naming specifc shares?

I'm pretty sure that last year, the first 5 trades were comission free. That's not the case this year, but I would still look to "slim down" sooner rather than later.
As for sectors... the stock market has just fallen heavily. Some think it will return to its previous position at some point, i which case those shares that fell the most will rise the most.

Any idea on who the leaders must have banked on? They have stormed to £17k from £10k in a day (think it was yesterday)
https://www.investoroftheyear.co.uk/?pa ... &pagenum=1
I have been fluctuating madly with a best position of 170 and worst of 3259 (out of 3365)
currently 352nd - was 1600th yesterday. Markets are mad...
Have pretty much consolidated into 80%/20% split of holdings between 2 companies. Waiting to decide whether all should go into one stock yet.

The problem is that AIM stocks can be chosen. I nearly lost 1st place last year when some-one's shares jumped 70% in a single day and they appeared on the leaderboard from nowhere!
This morning, for example, CMR has jumped 67% from 0.3p to 0.5p. Another example is OTO (a colleague has this in the Investaquest competition) which has gone from 200p to 1110p in two months.

LEADERBOARD INVESTOROFTHEYEAR
Just out of interest as of 30th June last year
The current top five portfolios were:
1. o2baflyonthewall - GBP13,035.31
2. Argaty Prospect - GBP12,953.43
3. Loftgroover - GBP12,930.25
4. Ian Rogers - GBP12,502.50
5. Duncton Shares - GBP12,326.65
24th July 2006 (3 weeks later pro-rata) I have noted Ian Rogers back again in the top 5, must be very good as he is leading at the moment. Profits seem much smaller compared to this time last year so the markets must be more volatile compared to last? Only 11 players so far with profit in excess of 11K. Just thought Mr Spitles and Mongoose might find it interesting....
