The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I use a couple of similar screens. My opinion is that 5 is too few stocks, so I go with top 10.

****** Top 10 Price/(52 week H+L sum) Monthly.
****** Top 10 NASDAQ100 stocks with the best 52 week gain. Monthly.
** Mungofitch screen using ROE, VL timeliness, etc. on the Russell top 2000, top 25 stocks.

Some screens picked MU and WBD a few months ago. Those two have been fortuitous, with huge gains.

and a couple of not quite similar.
* Top 10 of VONG (Russell 1000 growth index recast July 1 each year.) Hold for 1 year.
Up +53% since 2024 vs. VONG +37%

I buy GOOGL instead of GOOG.

It has been virtually impossible to beat the S&P 500 over the last few years, unless you wer, like SPY, heavy on the Magnificent 7 stocks.
