Top 4 predictions (betting thread)

Spot on Cam.
The Dow got smashed last night, so will be interesting to see how far the asx follows.
.

Well, the asx did follow... but not WKT! Up another 7%, that's 30% on your money if you'd listened, in what? 10 days? What do NAB give you?

I'm still in, and got some more WKT last week, and some ECX whilst I was at it.

An interesting one there Cam, buying in a bit of a dip of a new mob.... you calling it?

Well it turned to faeces of course when i got involved, but as a noob at this stuff at this stage I'm going to sit for a little while. Which is probably the dumb thing to do [and goes against what i've read and understand] as it can fall a fair bit more. However my investment is not very heavy so I guess I might use it as a bit of an experiment. In all sincerity, what do you suggest?

[Skids]

Haven't had a real good look at them, I will though.
Their dividend history is pretty healthy, but there was that big drop in earnings at the start of this CY (has bounced a bit since).

I'll have a good look at them this week.

I was just wondering if they were suggested to you, and why.

Had a bit more of a look. A lot of restructuring going on there, for the better I think. No dividend this half, which is part of their plan to build back up again after a couple of adjustments.
I reckon you'll see some steady growth, especially with a new FY right on our doorstep.

The [TAB] handicaps are:
Ade +6, Bris +14, Carl +32, Coll +4, Ess +6, Fre +20, Geel +8, Haw +10, NM +10, Mel +2, Port +14, Rich +0, StK +24, Syd +10, WC +4, WB +20, GC +48, GWS +10

I haven't found this market on sportsbet, but Ladbrokes has it. The Ladbroke handicaps are:
Adelaide Crows (+12) Brisbane Lions (+26) Carlton (+34)
Collingwood (+6) Essendon (+10) Fremantle (+26)
Geelong Cats (+14) Gold Coast Suns (+48 ) GWS Giants (+12)
Hawthorn (+20) Melbourne (+8 ) North Melbourne (+20)
Port Adelaide (+16) Richmond (Scratch) St Kilda (+30)
Sydney Swans (+14) West Coast Eagles (+6) Western Bulldogs (+26)

But Ladbrokes is offering only $11.
They're giving themselves a margin over 60%. Ridiculous! Stay away!!

Their handicaps look a fair bit different from TAB's...

Some of you may remember the great share tip I gave fellow nicksters back around 2009. NST, the buy in was around 8c from memory. Their price today is $9.46 and they are one of the biggest gold miners in Australia.

Well, these sort of shares don't come around every day, but, there's a sneaky one called Walkabout (WKT) that the tom toms tell me are going to head north a loooong way.

Priced at 30c today

Up 15% in just a few days

Another real smokey, and I'm not jumping in too heavy on this one, is PMY. At a measly 0.6c there's a chance to make a quick buck here

I'm in Skids, got into WKT.

Just hit a 12 month high

Yeah baby

Got into ASL a couple of days ago on the strength of being undervalued and the announcement of their 5 year deal in Botswana. They are currently on the way up.

Not a bad buy Cam. Mining is going nuts over here at the moment and plenty of big exploration budgets will be announced for next FY. Ausdrill are amongst that too.

ECX nice 5% bounce today and WKT hits a new high today too.

*Look at NST will ya $11.42, to think I had 120,000 of those at one stage, some bought for as little as 1.25c (10,000) My highest get on those was the last 15,000 - sold them for $1.41.

My biggest idiot moment with them was, I sold 10,000 @ 37c to buy an old Fairlane... sold it last year for a bag of weed.

Now.... for a same game multi for this weekend

[Skids]

Thursday night footy and I think a little $10 dabble will make the game watchable.

I'm taking; Coniglio 30+/Cameron 3/GWS by more than 15 points @ $12.

Seems an easy $110 to me

WKT up another 8% today... might put up a sell for 30% of my holding on Monday.... make a little and have a nice parcel for absolutely nothing

Your ECX are going sweet.. and ASL up 5% too Cam... happy days
