1,000 posts sure can pass by quickly and it's been an awesome journey thus far. To celebrate, I am hosting a contest.
The contest is whoever makes the closest guess of where the Dow Jones Industrial Average is at on the day I reach my 1,000th post wins.
But wait, there's more! The winner gets the chance to win some bonus prizes by guessing the following correctly: The closing price of Amazon.com (AMZN), BP (BP), and exchange rate of the USD to the Hong Kong Dollar. Why these things? I like buying stuff from Amazon, I have a desire to see BP's share price plummet even more, and Hong Kong is where I'm from.
Rules:
Edit: Deadline for guesses is Friday, 06/25.
Open to anyone on the Good Trader List.
All numbers will be verified on Google Finance.
All numbers are as of the closing price on the day of my 1,000th post. Exception is the exchange rate, which will be the last quoted rate by Google Finance on that calendar day.
Edit: Please include answers to the bonus question on your post.
Only the winner is eligible to play the bonus game. Each correct bonus answer results in one bonus prize. Answers don't have to be correct sequentially.
Good luck.

Trust me Tony.....everyone loves free cigars! = )
I'm waiting like the others bro! (until you put a date)
But this is simple. Well its a lot simpler than people listing 15 asceroteric tidbits about themselves you are supposed to guess.
The winner will be determined based on how the market does on the day I hit my 1,000th post.
Ya, i am just thinking there are a lot of people hoping Mr. Sight posts 5 more times on this weekend which would make Fridays DOW the number to guess. Its alot easier to guess todays close when there are only a few hours left compared to the guys who guessed last week. I'm hoping for a huge monday rally and for Sight to lose internet connection for the weekend.
