I've expanded my criteria a bit to get some smaller companies in, and instead of setting the cuttoff at $2 Billion market cap I usually use, I've gone down to $1.5 Billion. I wanted to see every company of that size which returned at least 15%. There are 95 names. I am proud to say we have have owned the #1 stock in that time frame as our top long idea for the vast majority of the past 4 months, Mosaic (MOS). It was our top winner even when we looked back in mid December [Top Fund Winners & Losers] and continues to contribute greatly. Consol Energy (CNX) has been our largest coal holding for most of the past 5 months as well. You can also see a lot of coal and agriculture names throughout (FDG, FCL & ANR we don't discuss but are 3 coal names); 2 bull markets I've been pushing constantly since early in the blog. So while there has been a lot of volatility it has been rewarding to see, when you take a step back and give a longer time frame, our top ideas working very well.
Criteria:
- Market cap $1.5 B+
- Stock price return 15%+
- Average Trading Volume 100K+
- Stock price $10+
