"Too many of us look upon Americans as dollar chasers. This is a cruel libel, even if it is reiterated thoughtlessly by the Americans themselves."

Updown Performance : down 19%
My Updown account is currently down 19% overall and I'm down about 4% since the start of 2009. In my last report at the end of My I was down 16.4%
The S&P 500 is down 30% in the same total period since March 2008, I'm beating the S&P 500 by 11% since starting. However the S&P is only down a little over 1% so far in 2009 so this year I'm not beating the index.
I haven't made any trades since March. Since I started playing Updown I've won $1.54 in real cash that was payed directly to my Paypal account. Not anything to brag about but not a bad perk for playing an online stock game.
