Whirlpool is rising with the global economy
WHR
Filed under: Stocks to Buy  Talk about advances. Institutional investor (II) sentiment on Whirlpool Corp. (NYSE: WHR) has strengthened in-sync with the strengthening global economy, and that's why I'm reiterating my Buy rating for the appliance manufacturer, first recommended on April 13, 2009 at a price of $34.47.

I was patting myself on the back as I looked at the huge surge in the portfolio today - each and every long position is up, most materially so. Then I went into my watch lists which are literally hundreds upon hundreds of stocks - probably around 400. Excluding 50 or so which are "highly speculative" I can only find about a dozen that are in the red. It's the "buy anything market" brought to you courtesy of the destruction of your currency.
The only losers I can find:
