We’ve completed the month June and it’s time to report which stocks have risen most within the first six months of the year. It’s always good to see which stocks are hot in the market and which of them are still cheaply valuated. That’s the main reason I like to produce an article serial with performance figures of the best performing stocks from several sectors of the financial market. Today I would like to screen the health care sector by dividend stocks with the highest stock performance since the beginning of the year.
The 20 most successful companies have realized a performance between 22.01 percent and 73.98 percent. The average capital gain was 36.24 percent. Despite the strong stock price hike, 17 of them still have a buy or better rating. Here are the cheapest stocks in terms of forward P/E: Warner Chilcott (WCRX), Questcor Pharmaceuticals (QCOR), WellPoint (WLP) and Humana (HUM).
