SHORT THE WINNER???

Back at the end of PSL4, MSGI indicated that he "shorted the sh$t out of Bobs TRGD". http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.asp?message_id=15586107

So, I gotsta wondering what happened to the very best stock in each contest after the contest ended. The results are below. Overall, as MSGI did, you should get away with shorting them.
           Contest  Contest 
Return CloseDate Price Today Change
PSL1: RWC +248% 12-30-05 $ 7.31 $ 3.20 -56%
PSL2: SUWN +320% 4-28-06 $ 1.05 $ .36 -66%
PSL3: ISIG +176% 9-01-06 $ 3.34 $ 2.97 -11%
PSL4: TRGD +269% 12-15-06 $ 1.07 $ .34 -68%
PSL5: PASW* +480% 4-27-07 $ 4.39 $ 6.00 +37%
PSL6: RVEP + 78% 8-31-07 $14.51 $16.00 +10%
PSL7: CEUA +295% 12-14-07 $ 6.40 ? ?
The average return is -26% - if you bought these stocks at the close of each contest. The last two have been positive, but it is also true that less time has gone by where the stock could drop. Also, RVEP (PSL6) did not have that great of a return for being #1, so it is not that surprising that it has not necessarily fallen.
