Dispute my mocking of the financial advise the shares in Canon Electronics Inc have risen from and initial price of $30.717 (when I started following them) and are now worth $30.770.

So if you'd invested $100 you would have made 17c.

The only problem is that you would have to pay a charge to buy the shares and another to sell them Lloyd's TSB charge £15 per transaction. So it's going be a while before I could make any money.
