Revisiting 2010 Top Picks

December 31, 2010
tags:

Late last year, I posted 5 picks that I felt had a good chance of outperforming the market. Although, I am typically attracted to small cap names, I decided to lean towards mid caps for their lower volatility profile. Lets take a look at how they performed over the year.

 

Price Today YTD Performance
Northern Dynasty 14.29 73%
Titanium Metals 17.18 71%
Viterra 9.28 -8%
Migao 7.78 8%
Hanfeng 5.96 -11%
Average Performance 26.6%
S&P Index 12.8%

Thanks to names like Northern Dynasty and Titanium Metals, these picks significantly outperformed the S&P 500. It is interesting to note that most of these names underperformed the index until the 4th quarter. However, patience is often rewarded.

I will not be able to post specific names for 2011, so I will try to outline sectors which I feel have a chance of doing well in the future posts.

Wishing you a Happy and Prosperous New Year!
