    High Tech Compute
  • $362.00
  • +3.43%
  • $355.00

High Tech Computer's (2498.TW) valuation is a fraction of Apple's, but its 3G phone is at least as good as the iPhone. One bullish estimate puts HTC's stock upside above 70% in the next year.

The folks at Strategas Research Partners cite another contrarian sign: Since 2000, companies that have been added to the S&P 500 have lost 6.6% on average over the next 12 months, while those removed have gained an average of 21.7%. So what companies have been added of late? Southwestern Energy (SWN), Cameron International (CAM) and Range Resources (RRC), among others. And what's out? Financial and consumer names, like Ambac Financial (ABK) and Circuit City Stores (CC), and companies that were acquired, including Bear Stearns and Tribune.
