DELL one of the BEST stocks to own in 1999-Individual Investor. Amein: I am not a big fan of Individual Investor but what the heck since DELL is one of the chosen ones I thought I'll put that up here for what it is worth. =================================================================BEST STOCKS TO OWN IN 1999 NEW YORK, Dec. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Individual Investor Group (Nasdaq: INDI) has announced the Magic 25(TM) Best Stocks to Own in 1999. Topping the list is Wal-Mart Stores, Dell Computer , the Ford Motor Company, Abercrombie & Fitch and Handleman, the Teletubbies distributor. The full report will be available in the January issue of Individual Investor magazine and online at: magic25.com . "We present a basket of the fastest growing stocks selected to outperform the market. We look for companies showing hyper earnings growth, the firms beating Wall St. analysts' expectations. We identify stocks by looking at a variety of factors, such as stocks being bought by their own top officials, stocks showing exceptional momentum and hitting new highs, and turnaround stocks selling at depressed values. Because of recent volatility and slower growth, our new picks reflect a more defensive nature, concentrating on more domestic companies, more retail, and a balanced group of company size and category," said Jonathan Steinberg, chairman and editor in chief of Individual Investor. Steinberg is a five-time winner and one of the top four performing investment professionals in The Wall Street Journal's stock-picking contest, Investment Dartboard, in 1998. Magic 25 picks for 1999 are: Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF) Candie's (CAND) CMG Information Services (CMGI) Corning (GLW) Cyberonics (CYBX) Dell Computer (DELL) Electronics for Imaging (EFII) Enzon (ENZN) First Union (FTU) Ford Motor (F) Gulfstream Aerospace (GAC) Handleman (HDL) Ivax (IVX) LTX Corp. (LTXX) Merrill Lynch (MER) Metromedia (MMG) Monsanto (MTC) Motorola (MOT) Movado (MOVA) NationalVision Associates (NVAL) Novell (NOVL) Sepracor (SEPR) Time Warner (TWX) Wal-Mart Stores (WMT) Warner-Lambert (WLA) This year's Magic 25 is balanced by size: 9 are small-caps, with less than $1 billion capitalization; 6 are mid-caps, $1-5 billion capitalization; and 10 are large cap companies with capitalization over $5 billion. ........(courtesy:marketwire/fox)
