Just curious why Jan 4?

It’s just 3 trading days into the year and gives any procrastinators recovering from the year end holidays one last chance to join in.

We waited too long, imo, this current contest (2018) to stop taking entrants and it resulted in some late picks that were already up big before the deadline came.

Would you prefer a different deadline?

For everyone who signed up this evening, I’ll add you to my spreadsheet tomorrow morning when I’m back at my computer. I’ll upvote your posts when I add your name so you’ll know you’re in.

I’ll post a complete list of everyone participating showing each person’s picks (for you to check for data errors on my part) when we get close to the deadline date.
