Applied Materials Still In First Place On ValuEngine NASDAQ 100 Top-Stock List

Date: Thursday, December 8, 2016 5:29 PM EDT

Since we last reported on the NASDAQ back in November, we find a 40% turnover. However, three of the top four companies have held onto their positions. Applied Materials has retained its lead yet again, with LAM Research and Netease keeping their second and fourth spots respectively.

CA Inc, Cisco Systems, and Broadcom have declined to make room for newcomers Qualcomm, Paccar, Seagate Technology, and American Airlines. Dollar Tree, Nvidia, NXP Semiconductor, and ULTA Cosmetics have fallen out of our top-ten this month.

Note too, all of these companies are BUY-rated with the exception of leader Applied Materials. That company remains a STRNG BUY.
