Fantasy Investing – May 2019 Standings

Fantasy Investing – May 2019 Standings

Sorry for the late release this month, but I was out doing some speculative “investing” with my family in Las Vegas this past weekend. From what I can tell, it was a good couple of days to be gone and not keeping an eye on my portfolio.

There has been some turbulence in the market lately and every portfolio is down but one (*cough*mine*cough*). Every portfolio is still in the green, though, even if a few are losing to the market (the S&P 500 is up roughly 11% for the year). Somewhat surprisingly, the order is unchanged from last month.

Notable performers? MercadoLibre has been an absolute beast and has now more than doubled in six short months. Honorable mention goes to Advanced Micro Devices, up a very respectable 60%. Amazingly enough, Tesla is the only position that is down, but it’s down nearly 40%.

Here are the standings so far:
