Castaway Stocks
Stocks to own if you were a survivor on a desert island and couldn't trade them for a year...
In 2003, TJ White came up with the idea for a stock portfolio management test that became known as the "Castaway Stocks." Since then he has overseen 3 annual competitions and 2007 will mark the fourth. Here is what TJ had to say about how it all got started:
In 2003, my wife and I were watching that Tom Hanks movie, Castaway where he's in a plane crash, but survives and lives on this deserted island for several years. Being the stock market nut that I am, I wondered what happened to his portfolio during that timeframe... He seemed a fairly successful guy, he probably had at least a 401K if not a brokerage account.
I thought that running a competition based on the premise of being in Tom Hank's situation as a castaway would be an interesting challenge for the top portfolio managers at Marketocracy. And it would get them to come up with some of their best ideas - stocks that could perform well over a longer period of time. Of course, a three year, or better yet, five year version would be ideal, but I figured one year would be a long enough time frame and would generate more participants. So, the objective of Castaways, is to pick five stocks you'd BE COMFORTABLE holding if your plan for the following year was to spend it on a tropical island talking to a volleyball.
