Barrons VS The Big Mouth 8/18/2007

I figured sooner or later Barrons would pick on him. It is frustrating recently that a lot of his picks have not had the same pop in post/pre-market as they once did. I am hoping he and his picks become lively again in September. The summer is not a good time to pick on his picks.

I have written down all his major picks over the last year and a half. The results I believe I could get if I shorted them based on my own rules are as follows:

January 2006 +4,000
February 2006 + 17,650
March 2006 + 16,000
April 2006 +11,000
May 2006 +7750
June 2006 +7000
July 2006 +1750
August 2006 +4750
September 2006 +5750
October 2006 +1000
November 2006 +5000
December 2006 +3750
January 2007 +5000
February 2007 +7000
March 2007 +7250
April 2007 +6250
May 2007 +7250
June 2007 +4750
July 2007 +2000
August 2007 +750 so far.

Some of the rules I use is he has to move it in the post-market during the show. I do not use any of the call in picks. Only his main ones hi-lighted. The stock must have shares to short. The trades are based on 1000 shares per trade or 5000 shares for stocks under $10. I figure this on the meat part of the move not the top and bottom ticks. I figure on a lot of the stocks I can do much better than what I write in my journal or the totals you see above. This is mainly because I may trade more than 1000 shares or pull off taking more than what I conservatively guess. I have traded a lot of these at times - changing my rules to better fit the situation and my own mental game. Also if it is a day in an up market, his picks make good buys and the first reaction to his picking it.

But you can see from above why I am so interested in them. The Big Mouths contract I believe is up at the end of October and CNN and Fox are going to try to get him. This will give him a new format and I hope - more stocks to play with. We shall see.
