The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

If you run list:*.s in the command line of GTR1 it shows that SIPro data has not been updated this year. I don't think you can get current picks for *.s fields.

I ran the Up_5% screen using GTR1 Helper, and it said:

Results
The following lists all stocks eligible at step17, sorted in descending order by field8, as of 20240111:

So gtr1 is certainly claiming that the picks are current.

However, it's reporting the top 5 picks as GCT, X, BIN, VST and IBCP. None of these match any of the picks in lohill's latest rankings at lohill writes on SI Pro Rankings 2024-01-12

It's very possible that the gtr1 picks are stale, despite the date shown being current, which would be disappointing.
