NFL Stocks - Revisited

Last February I published the NFL Stock Portfolio.

Back then, its 12 month return was an impressive 70%.




Lets see how it, and the stock market, has done over the past 6 months.

DOW Jones Industrial Average Return = 4.2%
NASDAQ Average Return = 5.9%

NFL Stock Portfolio Return = 18%

At this rate, I think I might just switch official watch lists.

The Official Fumbled Returns NFL Stock Portfolio is not made up of companies who have sports related products, or sponsorships, but rather stocks that have symbols which look like they could represent a particular team.

This is my version of the monkey throwing darts theory of picking stocks and it seems to be doing quite well.

As one might imagine, it was a bit difficult to actually come up with a symbol which easily could be related to an NFL franchise abbreviation or location. But I did manage to come up with one for each team. In some cases, I have alternates listed as well. I have counted these towards the average return for the watch list.

You can look up your favorite team stock symbol below to see how they have done.

The listing below show the following:

NFL Stock Portfolio









It only took me 14 months to think of the obvious.

An NFL based stock watch list.

Now, I could have done it on "official" sponsors of the NFL and its teams, but I choose to look for stocks with names or symbols similar to the team names, logos, and in one or two cases marque players.

Some were easier than others. Some were almost impossible (Oakland Raiders) and some had more than one option.

What I find interesting is the results of the past 1 year returns compared to the indexes, my watch lists, and the "pros".

If I had had this portfolio posted last year, and someone had invested equal amounts in each stock, you and I would have been the benefactors of a 70% return!


Consider this my version of the "Monkey Darts" portfolio.

So, here it is, my Fumbled Returns Official NFL Stock Portfolio.

Feel free to find your favorite, make comments or even vote on your favorite choice (especially for those with multiple choices).

I will bee keeping this official and tracking it from here on out.
