Starting December the DOW is sitting at 28051. Drafter has the lead but not for long.

Up or down from here?

my predictions in this contest and the previous Dow Contest are indicative of why my investment accounts valuations are where they are: mired in mediocrity rather than flying high...

I was too pessimistic for this contest... and way too optimistic on the other...

but this is one contest I sure hope to lose

Obviously, you are not invested in something like the S&P 500 or your accounts would be up more than 24% this year.

The DOW closed out the year at 28538 up about 22% for the year.

Congratulations to mjrburn. Please send me your preference from #86 above for the prize and your snailer.

And congratulations to everyone who has investments in the market as every index was way up, many by over 30%.

Happy New Year and here is to another profitable year in 2020.
