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.

Has anyone here seen numbers for the forward performance of portfolios consisting of yesterday's stock winners?
...
Nevertheless the scarce data that I have been able to find does indicate that outperformance tends to persist, and that a portfolio of, say, the top performing 5% of stocks in the S&P 500 over the last five years would outperform the average over the next year.


Someone on the MI board posted a backtest of top 5/10 stocks, monthly
thread: musselmant writes on twice the Nasda100 CAGR with simple criteria

S&P500, depends on starting date.
Nasdaq 100, yes, improved return.

This belongs in the MI board.
