Hi Jake, I agree with you PPHM is run by a bunch of idiots even if their scientists are brilliant. If you were to have bought and held PPHM with a beginning investment of $3000 six years ago, you would have made approximately 30% growth or $3908, but we do things seasonal around here Jake, hehe. If you were to have only bought PPHM in January and neve owned it any other time during those same six years, your $3000 would have grown to $23,368 or a growth for those six months of 699%. That is why we love seasonality. Now, can you imagine reinvesting that growth into a stock that habitually does well in February and that total into one that does well habitually in March and so on. Compound interest works with seasonality, but you have to stick to your plan. IRWhite proved that.

OK, according to the Best of the S&P 500 that I ran for April, the top industries to gaze at for April pops had been in the past six years:

And, not in any order, so don't read into this.

Auto & Truck Manuf and parts.
Tech
Retail Specialist
Misc. Cap Goods
Aerospace Defense

I am sure if I looked outside the S&P 500 for which stocks made the top growth in April the picture would be much different. Probably, some biotech or Communication Service and Equipment companies.

Stay healthy, Jake. Good times ahead. I know it. Keep Cats in your thoughts if you would. He is going through some very rough times.
