GuruFocus is calling for participatiion of another contest of guessing what Warren Buffett is buying.


In Warren Buffett's shareholder letter just released, the investment legend claimed that there are two stocks that are not open public and he is still buying more. He wrote "We don’t itemize the two securities referred to, which have a market value of $1.9 billion, because we continue to buy them. I could, of course, tell you their names. But then I would have to kill you." Here GuruFocus would like to host another contest guessing what these two stocks are, interested readers can participate this contest following this thread.


Our readers has already started the guessing game. Here we would like to invite more readers to participate. The top two winners will each win a copy of great investment book selecting from this list:


Joel Greenblatt: The little Book that Beat the Market


Benjamin Graham: The Intelligent Investor


Martin Whitman: The Aggressive Conservative Investor


Peter Lynch: Beating the Street


Peter Lynch: One Up on Wall Street


David Dreman: Contrarian Investment Strategies in the Next Generation





We have hosted two contest before guessing what Warren Buffett bought over the previous quarter. The winners of the third quarter of 2006 contest were Expectingrain and Gokou3. Each of them won a copy of Joel Greenblatt's "You Can Be a Stock Market Genius"! Those for the fourth quarter of 2006 were Harison and Jasonfrey33. Harison will receive a copy of Joel Greenblatt's The little Book that Beat the Market. Jasonfrey33 has yet to contact us to claim his book.


The deadline for this contest will be when Warren Buffett releases information about these two stocks, which can be 3 months, even 6 months later. Therefore this contest will last much longer than the ones we had before. Please participate this contest by following this thread. Good luck!
