Top 5 Industries and their 52 Week High Stocks

Apr 23 2008

Internet Info. Providers        
Stocks within this industry have had a good 10 days but none are close to their 52 week highs. Names like Google and Yahoo have had nice days lately but not near their peaks.

Nonmetallic Mineral Mining     
Potash Corp Saskatchewan (POT): This stock continues to move higher with a rare day of sell-off today prior to it's earnings tomorrow.

Agricultural Chemicals
All the Top 5 stocks in Market Cap in this industry are right there close to 52 week highs but the whole industry is having an off day.
MONSANTO COMPANY (MON)
MOSAIC COMPANY (MOS)
DU PONT E I DE NEM (DD)
SYNGENTA AG ADS (SYT)
AGRIUM INC. (AGU)

Oil & Gas Equipment/Svcs
Halliburton Company (HAL): Halliburton has been on a tear the past month with gas prices continuing to shoot up. I don't like the companies earnings estimates as they are nothing special.

Independent Oil & Gas        
Occidental Petroleum Corp. (OXY): Another stock similar to Halliburton above that is doing well with oil in a rally that is remarkable by all measure but not a great earnings outlook in my opinion for the company.

Oil & Gas Drilling/Explor
Both Nabors and Pride can be grouped in the Halliburton and Occidental except they are much smaller. They are both at 52 week highs but nothing special that I can see looking at an earnings estimate comparison.
Nabors Industries (NBR)
Pride International (PDE)
