I think either portefeuille or portefeuille2 should be given the "caps" game stock picking award (were it to exist), at least for the "early 2009 until now" period.

I am not sure whether portefeuille has done better than portefeuille2 (in stock picking). I am pretty sure that no player not on the following list has done better than the best portefeuille player. And the non-portefeuille players on that list all have a major problem. They have "not so great annualised returns".

(from here -> "Top Outperform Players" -> "refresh" (if some error page appears))

 

Thus, so far, I win, I think, hehe.

My "specialty" is probably biopharma stock picking, so if you want to make a "caps" game call on a biopharma stock (or buy/sell some) you might want to consider what the following people have to say (and not necessarily listen to those "90% accuracy 'caps' game players").

Sorry Port but the only relevant award is the "how much REAL money did you make in the end" award;p

We are playing the CAPS game here, not the stock picking game...you have to adjust your strategies to win the game you are playing, not the game you want to be playing. 

 

Also this is similiar to your "returns with dsco, returns without dsco" kind of nonsense, hehe

"returns with dsco, returns without dsco"

That was to seperate a "performance dominating" ("large volatility and size") position from the rest.

People that think development stage biopharma stocks should be evaluated on the basis of "book value" or "market capitalisation divided by number of active clinical trials" are free to not bother "following" any of those I follow on twitter ...

I had never noticed this before.  I'm currently ranked #28 overall, but am the #34 underperform player. Which suggest picking underperform picks has been a lot easier than picking outperform picks the last few years.

Nature of the game.  It is much easier to red thumb 1 star garbage, than green thumbing stocks that will outperform the market.  Also this game doesn't treat dividend stocks fairly, mainly because it would "break the game."

It more or less treats them the way it should treat them, see comments #30,31 here and comment #3 here.
