Investment Ideas Board

It's probably a good idea.  Maybe the person who starts the thread should follow up on the investment idea until it peeters out or something happens.  Cheers!

Is it possible to have updated quotes in the forum? I would be great if we would have the initial price of the thread and the current price.

I don't think that is possible. Maybe as part of the standard posting layout for the idea board, people could include a google finance / yahoo finance link at the beginning of the post?

I'm late in that thread, but it's a terrific idea Sanjeev. With that thread, we go back IMO to one of the basics of this message board that make it truly unique. By the way, I've notified that the board have been more "quiet", respectful, civilized and productive over the last week or so. It's great! 

Regarding the general karma of a poster, I also agree with Sanjeev, but some of us might remember the "Recommend" post feature of the old board and, to me, it was something valuable.

Cheers!

One important note:  If a ticker already exists, please do not start a new thread for a company.  All duplicate tickers will be removed and you would have wasted your time posting!

I don't want the board inundated with the same ticker symbol.  By having one ticker symbol per company, we also form a comprehensive archive or database of posts for that one company.  Anyone wanting to research that ticker, only has to look it up once and not do a separate search!  

All you have to do is click on the "subject" tab and the ticker's will be alphabetical.  You can easily see if a specific company already has their ticker on the board.  Thanks!  Cheers!
