Duel Flashback:
Novell
Six months ago, Novell was quite the puppy. The then-unloved networking giant was struggling. Louis Corrigan (TMF Seymor), who won the previous week's Campbell Soup <% if gsSubBrand = "aolsnapshot" then Response.Write("(NYSE: CPB)") else Response.Write("(NYSE: CPB)") end if %> Duel was the bull. David Forrest (TMF Bogey) was the Novell bear.
The company stormed back in dramatic fashion with the shares trading 85% higher than they were at the time of Duel. Our Foolish Voters overwhelmingly sided with this underdog.
Victory? Louis Corrigan and our Voting Fools. Congrats!
