I don't normally toot my own horn, but stock picks I made earlier this year through my investment newsletter have done far better than the S&P which has fallen 6% since the beginning of the year.
Each month my newsletter mentions three stocks. I average the percentage changes in the stocks I mention at the end of each month. I also have a stop loss rule in which stocks that decline by 2% are sold from the theoretical portfolio and the -2% return is included in the average for the month.
The top three performing stocks through April are:
- Walter Industries (NYSE: WLT) rose 66% from $41.71 to $69.36
- Southwestern Energy (NYSE: SWN) rose 30% from $32.62 to $42.31
- Ultra Petroleum (NYSE: UPL) rose 21% from $68.80 to $83.07
