what do u mean by sensible picks? Picking a penny counter means its insensible? You don't even know why I pick the counter in the first place and you just dismiss my choice? If you have picked Noble, golden agri from last Aug, does that mean only you are sensible and if I have picked a penny counter, I would have been insensible?
If you want to have a friendly contest to guide newbie, why not let him be exposed to all kinds of stocks in the market? I pick hankore because I see value in that company, there are further upside due to many factors. I can gladly park my money in there and let it grow for a year. In fact, I really did and I am still sleeping well at night because I have faith in my analysis and the company.
You have your own investment theory, methods and beliefs and I have my own. I find it offending when you just dismiss my pick as insensible just because it is a micropenny without even trying to find out the reasons or analysis on why I pick my stocks.
