Large Cap Watch List Changes

Tags: Stock Market, CHRW, NVR, MCO, PCG, RWEOY, ANF, TJX, SIE, SLM, RX
27 Jun 10:47am

With the end of the first quarter approaching, it is time to adjust the names in my Watch Lists. I will price all the new lists as of the close on Friday, June 29.

Today I present my planned updates to the Large Cap Watch List (Track at Marketocracy). There was a fairly high level of turnover to the list. 14 of the 26 names from the previous run made it to the current list, which was only 25 names. Performance-wise, the list created in March has returned an unweighted average return of 3.8% through June 28, with 64% of the stocks in positive territory.
So without further ado, the names on the chopping block from the previous list are: Steel Dynamics (STLD - Annual Report), NVR (NVR), RWE AG (RWEOY), Sierra Health (SIE), Sallie Mae (SLM), Moody’s (MCO), TJX Companies (TJX), Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF), IMS Health (RX), Oracle (ORCL - Annual Report), CH Robinson (CHRW) and PG&E (PCG). Sallie Mae was one of the portfolio’s bigger winners due to its pending buyout.

The new list is:

I will continue to track both lists on StockPickr.
