We've come to the end of our Motley Fool Stock Madness tournament, which pitted 16 editor-selected companies in a fierce investing bracket.
I'll help you figure out the winner by sharing three terrible puns I could have used:
- The Tide rolls on.
- This company is Head & Shoulders above the rest.
- The victory wasn't Nice 'n Easy, but it's no Secret that the winning stock displayed some Zest.
Consumer products giant Procter & Gamble
Beyond the final, though, our tournament offered several other highlights.
Biggest first-round surprise: The size of Boeing's
The Group of Death: The "High-Tech" group was a killer, with Apple
Closest match-up: Procter & Gamble's semifinal victory over Apple. After surviving the Group of Death, Apple lost by just six votes, with more than 1,000 investors weighing in. Despite the winner being declared, stragglers have continued to weigh in. As of this writing, the margin is down to just one vote!
