Great Day for the Buy List
Today was a very good day for the Buy List. I shouldn’t brag about this since we’re focused on the long term around here, but it’s nice to have a big day.
The Buy List gained 2.97% while the S&P 500 gained 1.47%. That’s an unusually large gap in our favor.
Eighteen of our 25 stocks beat the market today. Both Danaher (DHR) and Silgan (SLGN) made new 52-week highs today.
