Thread: 2013 Guess the Dow Contest

14289

14,325

13575

14,175

I forgot to give a last call on Jan 8 and it looks like this thread got lost in the shuffle, so I will take guesses until about 5 PM ET today (Jan 11) and then close the thread.

Thanks!

Guess the closing price of the Dow for Monday, Tuesday 31, 2013.

We will accept your guesses and revisions until COB on Tuesday January 8, 2013.

Guesses should in whole dollar amounts - no cents.

The winner will get some kind of TSP Talk prize.

Good luck!

Oh, wth... 16,530 (and I see this is still below BT's estimate )

Tom,

This is totally unfair. It is SO much easier to estimate the EOY DOW when you have a whole week advantage on the rest of us suckers. I definitely could have figured it out last year.

By the way - yuk, yuk...

These late arriving chumps will probably overestimate the DOW because of the Boom Week!!!

LOL - this rally may have thrown some to be too bullish. And don't forget...

We will accept your guesses and revisions until...

Got an entry via PM I missed...

Good luck to the last three reamining in the hunt (bar any catastrophical market condition!)

Just drop the DJ value in I1 to adjust the standings, although it should be quite clear where you're at now...


Sorry Rod, you DQ on a duplicate guess after WorkFE.
