How have my “Ten Best Cramer Picks” done?
If you’ve been reading closely, you’d notice that a couple of September’s ago I listed the “Ten Best Cramer Stocks to Buy Now” as a kind of a joke. You see, what I did then was choose ten Cramer picks that had already gone down the most from when he recommended them the previous March. The thinking was that if he still was recommending them (and he was) that they would be best poised for some upside potential. Good thinking, right? Here’s how it has turned out from 9/20/2006 thru 10/27/2007:
Symbol | Holding | Return | Risk |
EDCI | 10% | -55.14% | 36.66% |
DXCM | 10% | -21.99% | 52.05% |
PWAV | 10% | -39.34% | 32.99% |
MSPD | 10% | -21.92% | 41.38% |
RACK | 10% | -58.69% | 58.92% |
MRVC | 10% | -16.77% | 43.10% |
MATK | 10% | 19.64% | 31.40% |
SIRF | 10% | 5.28% | 64.92% |
AVNX | 10% | -15.33% | 40.68% |
MCHX | 10% | -18.08% | 52.40% |
TOTAL | 100.0% | -21.58% | 22.88% |
And for a comparison to the IFA IndexFolio 100’s Risk and Return for the same period, here’s a handy graph:
Oh, but hey, he got MATK right!
