Best Performing Mid and Small Cap Stocks Since 10/9/07 Peak

Oct 09, 2009 - 11:29 AM EDT

Yesterday, we looked at the best performing S&P 500 stocks since the index's all-time closing high on 10/9/07. This morning we highlight the 25 best performing stocks in the S&P 400 (mid cap) and S&P 600 (small cap) indices. As we saw yesterday with the S&P 500, sectors dominating both lists come from the Consumer Discretionary, Health Care, and Technology sectors. While the presence of tech stocks on these tables is not surprising, given the weak consumer and prospects for nationalized health care, it is surprising to see pockets of strength in the Consumer Discretionary and Health Care sectors.
