15 Great Stocks From the Great Depression


I ran across this interesting article. It includes the 50 best performing stocks from 1932 to 1954 by cumulative total return. Lately, I find myself thinking we are near one of the greatest investing opportunities of a lifetime. There is little doubt in my mind that once the market capitulates there will be some stocks you can buy, own them for twenty years, and make a future. I am also thinking hard about which international stocks will be big winners of the future. China?

I also want to remind people that the final big lows in the depression market were not made in 1929 but in 1932. The Dow did not regain its pre-crash level until 1954. Same story in the period from 1966-1982. Does this mean we are in for 20 years of sideways action in the market?

Can you make money after the final capitulation in a bear market? Check this out.
