Filed under: Stocks to Buy The S&P 500 is down 12% this year. But some stocks are doing spectacularly well. My newsletter, which has been picking three stocks a month for the last five and a half years, has found several of them. This year, it's up 29% so far. That increase is the rise in the average stock mentioned in the newsletter since its initial mention through the end of June. And it uses a 2% stop loss rule which automatically sells any stock that has declined by 2% and charges that decline against the returns. Here are the three biggest winners: <> Walter Industry (NYSE: WLT) +156% ...

Coal Companies Face Long-Term Challenges, But Business Great for Now

5/18 - "Coal’s edge...is that it’s still the low bidder when it comes to costs, despite the recent run-up in prices. Also, everything needed to radiate coal-fired power all over the map already is in place, not only the generating stations but storage, transit and integration with the grid.

Filed under: Stocks to Buy  Through April, the stock picks in my investment newsletter, The Cohan Letter, have risen an average of 19%.

I also have a stop loss rule in which stocks that decline by 2% are sold from the theoretical portfolio and the -2% return is included in the average for the month. The top three performing stocks through April are: <> <><><>Walter Ind...
