July 2017 Stock Pick Performance

July 2017 Base Stock Performance July 2017 Weekly Stock Performance Once again, all stock pick categories -- Base Stocks and Weekly Stock Picks -- beat all three stock indexes during the month of July, 2017.

On the other hand, some picks occurred with the expectation buying on a pull-back and thus those with the greatest percentage loss represent the greatest profit opportunities. For base stocks, the only index that was worse was the NASDAQ. Base stocks lost to the S & P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial average. Base stock performance is reflected in the following table. Note that when data collection occurred on…

March Stock Picks the market again . . . just like in February! Base stocks were minus 1.66% for the month but outperformed the Dow, which was down 2.14%. The S & P 500 was down 1.39% and the NASDAQ was up 0.13% for the month of March. Nothing stellar here as the Trump bump winds down and stocks move into a trading range that is dependent on earnings. What was stellar were the FREE monthly stock picks that beat…
