Don Cliff, an OAC student and Erik Hudson, a Grade 12/ OAC student joined the chal- lenge, along with the rest of their class, as part of their eco- nomics course. Each team was given $100,000 of ficticious money to join the challenge and the two ocal youths managed to accu- mulate $123,000 during the three-month running of the con- test. The two placed 100th overall among more than 43,000 en- trants, many of which were in- vestment professionals. At one point the duo climbed as high aseighth overall. The participants were given a choice of more than 100 compa- a nies on the Toronto Stock Ex- change and were required to al- locate funds among six different industries. Don and Erik chose Labatt's, Canadian Pacific, Southam, Nowsco Well Service, Euro- Nevada and the Bank of Mon- treal as their companies. They loaded up on the La- batt's stock in February, long before the recent takeover sent the stock higher. Another award winning choice was Euro Nevada, a gold mining operation which was one of the best performing stocks available. "Their performance was ex- cellent," said Ian Haar, a broker with Midland Walwyn, who helped provide guidance to the students. "The rate of return is more than 90 per cent on an annual- ized basis and by placing 100th, they ranked in the top one per cent of all entrants," he added.
