I've doubled in the past 5 hours in spite of the stocks taking a dump.

I just went in and maxed out my portfolio before reading these boards. Now I see you have given away our secret! SSSShhhh!!!!
Let these folks buy buy buy so when the real numbers come out, us short sellers win win win.

6 months seems like an aweful long time to tie up your money.

If your objective is to maximize your portfolio right now I'd agree with that, however I don't think that's the objective for playing this game. I don't know about you but I am here to predict how well will these cars sell in the first 6-month period.

well, herein is the "problem" with the game. For the first 6 months, we aren't gambling on the sales of the vehicle, we are gambling on what other folks will do with the stock.
 
So, yeah, the A5 ain't selling anywhere near those numbers, but as long as folks buy the stock because they don't understand what the numbers mean, it doesn't matter.
 
So, you are correct. I very well may have to wait 6 months to see reality kick in. I'm hoping, however, once true sales numbers are posted on a regular basis, folks will quickly realize how the game works.

Do you think you are going to make 2500% by buying stock? Its capped at 100. He will make 82 dollars per share. If he has 10000 shares then he just made 820,000 on one stock.

Wow. There's some serious volatility in this market place. I agree that long term, a short and hold is probably a good strategy as most all of the stocks are vastly overpriced compared to the rules of the game. In the interim though, the activity looks pretty random.

Originally it was the cool cars with inflated prices now its crappers like the Nissan Murano and Hyundai Genesis. Come on who really gets excited about the Subaru Forester.
