Real or simulated, tell us what you have and why you have it:
All of my stuff is in the investopedia simulator, but I for some reason am pretty attached to it and get pissed off if I start losing money. So far I am outperforming the S&P by around 7.8%, mostly due to VRUS and CAT.
CAT (Caterpillar) - I think CAT is a strong company run fairly well. I'm expecting them to get back near $120 a share eventually. They weathered the recession extremely well.
VRUS - Check the VRUS thread here.
EME (Emcor Group) - A mechanical/electrical construction company. I kind of bought them for fun to see keep track of them. I was kind of betting on this second stimulus package creating some sort of boost in gov't facility work for them.
NTDOY (NIntendo) - Interested to see how they fare in the next gen console wars.
Toyota/Ford/Honda - Own all of the above. I think Toyota and Honda will continue to rebound after production issues after the earthquake. Ford I think will end up being the only American brand you can trust in the long run. We'll see.
I bought some GTX and sold it off for a little gain. I'm not sold on their products, but maybe I don't really understand enough about them.
Also own Sanofi, Biosanti, and Gilead which are covered in the stock thread. Kind of just to keep an eye on them.
I just shorted Pfizer for some cash. I probably should have held on to them for longer but i kinda wussed out.
I am also shorting RIMM (Research in Motion) because I think that Droid and the Iphone will continue to put the nail in the Blackberry coffin.
