Try your hand at picking stocks

12/24/2008

It has been a bitter year for stock investors in 2008, but readers can try to get a prize next year by entering the 2009 Blade Stock Market Game.

The rules and entry form, which will be in tomorrow's Business section, require contestants to submit an entry form by year's end with four stocks trading for more than $3 a share. Prizes will include a three-day trip and cash up to $300.

The game will be co-sponsored by the Toledo office of Smith Barney and Central Travel of Toledo.
