The worst stocks of the 21st century ?
Well, the century is only 7 years old, so the title is a little misleading - and for a number of other reasons as well: 1) 2000 was one of the worst years in the stock market as the "century" started us off with the dot bomb crash. 2) 2001 followed up with the WTC terrorist attack on 9/11 which resulted in the Dow losing about 4,000 points (trading was halted for a week to prevent further losses) and if it wasn't for the government pumping tons of money back into the Dow to help bring it back up and restore confidence, who knows where we'd be.
So as far as the stocks listed, you may want to check out the following growth numbers for 2006 before you write off these stocks for the 21st century:
2006 Price Growth:
GM +58%
T +46%
HPQ +44%
DIS + 43%
MRK +37%
MCD +31%
VZ +23%
JPM +21%
HON + 21%
KO +20%
IBM +18%
DD +14%
MSFT +14%
PFE +11%
