This list consists of the top stock-picking brokerage firms (public) over the last 5 year period versus the S&P 500.

In the Barron's 3-12-07 issue, they did an article on which firms were "...staying atop the Wall Street broker pyramid."

Discount broker Charles Schwab came out on top and maintained their general dominance.

"Barron's rates the stock-picking abilities of brokers that issue focus lists, or rosters of their best ideas. We rely on data compiled by Zacks Investment Research, an independent outfit that keeps a running tally of the firms' focus lists over various periods."

A. Thanks for the lead. In relation to
other mining companies of the same size
are HL financials and their future
mining considered strong? In researching
there are so many smaller mining
companies out there I am looking for
ones that are financially stable with
some good prospects. I also looked at
TGB. Any insights would be appreciated.
