Date updated:08-26-2007

Stockpickr has an "I'm Feeling Lucky" button." When pushed Stockpickr brings up a random Stockpickr portfolio. I pushed "I'm Feeling Lucky" 20 times and entered the first stock in each returned random protfolio into this list. Ergo, it is a stock picker dard board of sorts. The performance tracking feature on the right is turned on so everyone can monitor its perfromance. Please note I put this together on August 25, 2007 in the depths of the Subprime Crisis. It isn't often you can feel lucky 20 times in the middle global financial crisis. I've added SPY so you can see how the picks performed against the SP500 index.

  • MSCC
    Microsemi Corpora
  • $15.35
  • -1.10%
  • $15.46

Makes analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits and semiconductors and other sexy stuff. Sounds great but didn't Peter Lynch say...? It also doesn't comply with The Only Free Lunch on Wall Street rule - Don't invest in any companies where Japanese, Korean and Chinese companies are or will destroy pricing power. Diversification isn't free. However, as noted above these are all randomly generated picks.

A property casualty insurance company who's stock price has suffered water damage this year. We will have to wait and see how much subprime slime seeped into the basement.

Exxon. XOM came up three times while pushing "I'm Feeling Lucky." No others repeated. Looks like XOM is a crowded stockpickr trade. If Stockpicker ever gets a margin call, watch out below for XOM.

Johnson and Johnson. Buffet even bought some recently. I mean, if this does well after a Buffet buy, do I really deserve to feel lucky? At least I didn't get stuck with PFE.

All sorts of streaming video stuff. Lots of great technology and a terrible YOY stock chart. This one might just suck a disproportionate amount of luck from this portfolio.

An investment bank randomly selected right here in the middle of the August 2007 Subprime Financial Slime Down. This is going to be fun to watch.
