                  Wachovia shares, which had slumped as the global credit crisis intensified in recent months, dropped $8.20, or 82 percent, to $1.80 as trading resumed Monday afternoon. They had traded as high as $52.25 over the past year.

                    my Humana(HUM) was up like $2.80 earlier, too bad it was in the $80 range when we started this thing and immediately tanked the 1st week into the contest down to like $40, it has just went up-n-down in the high 30's to mid 40's since then.

                            I tried to put them in a column format but I couldn't succeed. I can send someone the spreadsheet.

                            It looks like only two contestants are positive. Toll Brothers (TOL) 20.13% and Walmart (WMT) 16.31%

                                I couldn't find CFC. Let me update my spreadsheet to CFC-A and I will edit the previous post.

                                    When I did my spreadsheet I used 1/18 (Friday's closing numbers) as the buy price. I used the current prices at 10:00 am this morning for closing prices.

                                    As far as as CFC-A can someone tell me what is the price on 1/18 (the day the contest started) so I can input it to my spreadsheet. I believe it used to be called CFC back then.

                                      Countrywide is a loser. It was a $40 stock that went to near nothing before BAC scooped them up. Toll Brothers??
