Week 7 update

Up day in the market and the negative returns from Friday's big drop are reversing. ODFL now up 3.14% and PRFT recovered from a large drop to be up 0.70%. Two days still to go on the picks.

Week 7 update

Well the market was down over 350 points on Friday which never helps no matter how one determines the stocks to buy. But even so, the market recovered enough that the overall picks are down less than 2% as of today with three days to go.

ODFL is up 1.90%.

This five day set will end close of market next Wednesday.
