There are three days left in the first Jambaz stock prediction contest. I haven’t been paying a lot of attention to the game, which you can participate in daily, because of an illness in my family, but I’m not doing too bad. Currently, I am sixth out of 12 players on my blog and 24th of 94 players globally.
With three days left, join in and see if you can top my score.
I’ve been basing my predictions for movement on upcoming news from the companies in the list. What I found at ON24, the financial news network I used to run, was that any news will move a stock and that tepid news will drive it lower. Apple is generally getting good buzz and creeping upward while Cisco and Google are flat to negative because of lack of news. It’s worked moderately well and I would have done better had I been entering scores for the next day all the last week.
Also, let me know what you think of the game, the widget, and the way the data is presented so I can pass it along to the folks at Jambaz.
