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.

So, back in the day, I believe someone started a thread on the old MF boards based on this article:

crossingwallstreet.com - The home run stocks wall street doesnt know about

I created a spreadsheet to track performance of the stocks mentioned in the article, and pretty sure I posted a link to the spreadsheet in the same thread. Anyway, ran into it while looking through some bookmarks, so figured I'd post this update. Almost exact same performance as SPY. One caveat, two of the stocks stopped trading last month, so I entered their last price. November was a good month, so portfolio returns might be a couple percent higher had they continued to trade. Basically, 2 stocks carried the 10 stock portfolio, and 6 of the stocks significantly underperformed SPY.
