uncle23 bounces back and retakes the lead. Value Buy has a head in front of kadee72. Four of six are beating the benchmark going into the final day which happens to be what I hope is an uncommonly lucky Friday the 13th.

I am shocked with KBH today. It was trading below $15.60 earlier today. Thought I was toast.
