Stepan hit a new 52-week low today. This could be a compelling buy. $SCL has raised its dividend for the last 57 years in a row.

So much financial commentary is thinly veiled public moralizing.

Please note that the Dow isn't continuous in the 20th century, thank you Gavrilo Princip.

Now that the 20th Buy List is alive, what are some of your favorite value names right now? I know $WM is a perennial FinTwit favorite. What else?

Last year, the Dow was up 13% on Thursdays and Fridays combined, but it was down on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesdays combined.

[Eddy Elfenbein @EddyElfenbein]

Interesting. It seems that people take the last 30 or so years and project it far into the future.

AFLAC was on the Buy List for 19 years!

The five new stocks have been added to $CWS and the five old ones are deleted. All 25 positions have been equally weighted, and we're looking ahead to the new year. Thanks to everyone for your support. https://t.co/TUyIWd67KR

The century is one-quarter over. The S&P 500 Total Return index is up 542%, which is about 7.7% per year (not including inflation).

Since the March 2009 low, the S&P 500 Total Return is up over 1,000%.

As late as 2011, the market was underwater for the century.
