February 2008 Contest - Covestor

Value Investing News — Fri, 01 Feb 2008 10:39:58 -0500

This month's sponsor of the Value Investing News user contest is Covestor. Founded on the belief that successful investment strategy is not the sole province of money management firms, Covestor provides a unique destination for proven self-investors to share real investment decisions, gain recognition and eventually earn fees as others invest directly alongside them.

Use Covestor to track your own investment performance, and track the live trades of other members for free. To ensure privacy, all data is normalized and members can choose to remain anonymous.

Covestor provided the following prizes for the February Value Investing News Member's Contest:

1st Prize:

$75 Amazon.com gift certificate

2nd Prize:

$50 Amazon.com gift certificate

3rd Prize:

$25 Amazon.com gift certificate

This contest will run until February 28, 2008. The top prizes will go to the top 2 user point earners in the month of February. The third prize will go to a randomly selected member with a positive user point score at the end of the month.

Be sure to hit the Value Investing News Fourm in February. We are doling out extra points for forum discussions. Our goal is to increase activity in the forum 100% in February. Don't miss the conversation.
