Top 25

Just for fun, I pulled a list of the top 25 annual gains from my tracking portfolios. So these are all annual gains (except for the ones still open). I know we all wish we had picked a few of these winners. Of course many of these were from the 1st quarter of 2009, when the market was in absolute doldrums. Another lesson learned?
