While the title of this stock screen isn’t entirely true, the list below is just as about as close as it gets to stocks who have out-performed the market incredibly well, in both good times and bad. I basically wanted to see which stocks held onto or improved their share value for the past year with out succumbing to market forces back in November of ’08 through March of ’09 and also did incredibly well during the booming eight months or so that followed. So below there are 11 stocks that have been winners regardless of the situation, and have rewarded their shareholders handsomely.
