It's totally fine, just reset your tokens to where they were before you bought the stocks. Good luck in your next round!

Since I thought this was an interesting idea, I thought of a strategy that I think would be really effective. The competitors I chose are not well-known, and I don't know them either, I found them by looking at competitor lists. I'm curious to see how well my strategy does compared to what everybody else is doing, which is totally different(and most of them are clearly not trying to actually win but I want to be #1 in the leaderboard just for fun).

Since my strategy mostly relies on random cubers who are competing this week, I feel like while it may be a better strategy, it goes against the spirit of this game(since it's about top solvers who have a lot of potential) so I'll only do it this week.

Buy: 500 tokens of Cameron Pollard (2022POLL01)
Cost: 1000 points (2 points each)

Buy: 500 tokens of Tomer Gluzman (2024GLUZ01)
Cost: 1000 points (2 points each)

Buy: 500 tokens of Lucas Shi (2023SHIL02)
Cost: 1000 points (2 points each)

Buy: 500 tokens of Nathan Putman (2024PUTM01)
Cost: 500 points( 1 point each)

Buy: 500 tokens of Dirdh Modi (2024MODI01)
Cost: 500 points(1 point each)

Buy: 500 tokens of Gaurav Roy (2019ROYG01)
Cost: 500 points(1 point each)

Buy: 500 tokens of Jonathan Hallen (2024HALL21)
Cost: 500 points(1 point each)

Points spent: 5000
Points remaining: 0
Total value: 5000

Is the leaderboard based on whoever's stocks are worth the most, or whoever has the most tokens? Just in case, I won't sell yet, but these are how much the stocks are worth now(I think I made a mistake with how much I buy of each stock but the stocks did well so it should be fine)

Cameron Pollard doubled, so 1000 points to 2000 points

Tomer Gluzman doubled, so 1000 points to 2000 points(barely came short of quadrupling)

Lucas Shi doubled, so from 1000 points to 2000 points

Nathan Putman, so from 500 points to 1000 points

Dirdh Modi didn't change(barely came short of doubling), so from 500 points to 500 points

Gaurav Roy is now worth 6 times as much, so from 500 points to 3000 points

Jonathan Hallen doubled, so from 500 points to 1000 points

So if I were to sell these now, my tokens would go from 5000 originally to 11500 now.

Buy : 22 tokens of Gursan Singh(2019SING33)
Cost : 1100

Buy : 4 tokens of Đỗ Quang Hưng(2019HUNG16)
Cost : 1800

Buy : 3 tokens of Zhaokun Li(2024LIZH03)
Cost : 2100

Yes, I know this is the most random set of people ever, just bear with me.

Zhaokun Li got a 5.34 average which is sub 5.5, so now my Zhoukun Li tokens are worth 3000.

I won't sell then now, because he's close to sub 5.3 now.

(I literally looked at a comp tomorrow, and found him, which his PR is from 2022, and he DNFed the only other time he competed, so I hope he can get me some profit)

Let's go my boy (idk who he is).
He got a PR under 15 seconds, so now he is worth 4 points, soo

not at all lol

Basically you put money into investments and things you trust that you have a feeling will become more valuable as the years go on, and when you feel it’s the right time you sell them and get the money back for hopefully a higher amount than you put in the first place.
