Barron's: Stocks to Buy for Rest of Year

Description:

From Barron's 7-23-07:

"Good but not great. That's the assessment of some equity strategists on the stock-market outlook for the remainder of the year...With the S&P 500-stock index up nearly 10% in 2007, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average up 11%, it's tough to envision substantial gains in the months ahead. But it's not an unreasonable bet that the S&P, now at 1534, could hit 1625 by year end, a 6% increase...In our "Time to Buy" cover, we identified 10 large companies that looked attractive. Since then, the group is up an average of 31%, versus a 25% rise in the S&P...Which of the 10 stocks still look good?"
