A free one-year subscription to the companion investment website Iacono Research will be awarded to the contestant with the lowest combined percentage error between their guesses and the prices for these two important commodities on December 31st.

A new graphic will be provided either tomorrow or early next week containing all the entries for the current contest and then regular updates will occur between now and the end of the year. See the contest kickoff post and last week's reminder for further details.
Entries may be made either by posting them in the comments section of this post (or either of the prior two posts above) or sending mail to either tim-at-iaconoresearch.com or tliacono-at-yahoo.com.
The winner will be announced on December 31st - good luck to all!
