Squawk Box Fantasy Portfolio Challenge

S

SammySOESa

anyone playing? i used to play Yahoo's Fantasy Stock Trading back in the 90's, and Wall St. players were using inside information to practically quadruple their portfolios every month, and sweep the prizes. Yahoo couldn't prevent the cheating, so they ended the game.

what's gonna stop the same thing from happening now? whoever wins this '06 Maserati is probably gonna have an obscene net. i hope they rip the keys outta his hands when they find out he has some connection to Goldman's M&A department. :mad:

:p

The point is there is no challenge. All luck. No different than lottery ticket. It's not real-time trades. Trades don't even have commission! Pure fantasy, luck not skill. Contest rules says it all. And CNBC will make winners into gurus LOL. It is total bs contest, if you can call it a contest.

OK. i`m gonna have fun with it anyways. Why not? Might as well mirror my real trading and see what happens. For a Maserati i`ll take the time to enter trades once a day.
