Report on Business-Heavy Lifters

On the front page of today's ROB there is a huge chart of the S&P/TSX  Composite Index and the  comment that yesterday, for the first time since October 2000 the Index closed above 10,000. They went on to say that since the bottom in October of 2002 the Index has gone up  4,221 points and the heavy lifters were Encana  (+264 points) followed by, in order, BNS, TD Bank, CNQ, Royal Bank, Manulife, CIBC, Suncor. These were the top 8 stocks cntributing to the 4,221 point rise.

And we had them all as topicks in the past 31 months!

Numbers 9 and 10 on the ROB List were  RIM and BMO and we had neither of them.

Not too bad for a 22 handicapper..
