Link here, AppEconomy, best companies of 2023:

  • META: the year of efficiency;
  • SpaceX: skyrocketing valuation;
  • Novo Nordisk: is Ozempic right for me?
  • MSFT: OpenAI, Azure, and Activision
  • Nvidia: company of the year

Barron's top ten for 2024, in alphabetical order, in BOLD, my favorite:

  • Alibaba
  • GOOG (Alphabet);
  • Barrick Gold
  • BRK (Warren Buffett)
  • BioNTech (partner PFE and competitor Moderna)
  • Chevron
  • Hertz Global
  • Madison Square Gardens Sports
  • PepsiCo
  • U-Haul Holding

Barron's top ten for 2023 (same link as above):

TMDW top ten for 2024, one-year change; 5-year change; new money -- not necessarily top picks for the year; for example, if I didn't have to re-balance my portfolio, AAPL would replace ABBV or WMT, as just one example. The following list is "fluid" but likely where 85% of my new money will be allocated in 2024, in order of preference:

  • TSM: 35%; 187%;
  • AVGO: 105%; 361%
  • MSFT: 54%; 277%
  • NVDA: 201%; 1,400%;
  • CAT: 28%; 138%
  • DE: - 11%; 170%;
  • WMT: 7%; 75%;
  • DVN: - 24%; 105%
  • NOG: 20%; 80%
  • ABBV: -5%; 81%;

From Barron's, link here: AAPL could hit market cap of $4 trillion in 2024.

Apple currently has a market cap of about $3.1 trillion. The stock would need to close at $257.19 a share or higher to reach the $4 trillion market cap milestone. That’s a 30.6% gain from Tuesday’s close.
