Below we provide a table with the 10 best performing stocks in 2009 in each of the ten S&P 500 sectors. For investors looking for specific names that money managers will likely want on their books by year-end statement time, this is a good place to start.
(Note that there are only 9 stocks in the Telecom sector, so we provide the year-to-date returns for all of them.)
I like looking at the top sectors and then the top stocks within those sectors... it might be helpful to publish the list of top sectors.

“… my studies have consistently shown that two equally bullish charts will perform far
differently if one is from a bullish sector while the other breakout is in a bearish group. The favourable chart in the bullish group will often quickly advance 50 to 75 percent while the equally bullish chart in a bearish group may struggle to a 5 to 10 percent gain”
