It's that time of year again. 2021 contest will wrap up soon. This will already be our 4th annual competition. We'll see who takes it this year. All forum members are encouraged to participate.

2021-I'm not saying it's over but it's over unless Ken's port is snake bitten the last few weeks.
We'll keep it even simpler this year. It will run from JAN 1 to DEC 31 2022. Try to have your picks in by very early January, but we can keep it open a few extra days to get more participants. Enter your picks anytime. You may edit them as often as you like until the contest starts.
1. Pick five dividend stocks. Not confined to the US. No ETFs, options or penny stocks. We are trying to use our individual stock picking abilities and eliminate any use of leverage.
2. If you wish, you may waive the dividend rule for one stock to allow adding a growth pick.
3. We won't split hairs but please abide by the spirit of the rules. Make an honest attempt at diversification like you would if this was your real port.
4. It is OK to use stocks that somebody has already put in their port.
Although I started this, I am open to your ideas for rule changes. Suggestions welcomed but we need them within a few days. I will place my picks as an example in the next post. I will edit all of them later.
