Crude oil prices recently hit a six-month high above $66 a barrel, while the dollar on Friday sank to multi-month lows against the euro and British pound. The Dow is still up about 28 percent from the 12-year low it reached in early March, but remains down more than 40 percent from its record high in October 2007. The Commerce Department’s report on first-quarter gross domestic product Friday showed the economy contracted at an annual rate of 5. But helping counteract that disappointing report was the University of Michigan’s index of consumer sentiment, which showed a larger-than-expected increase in May. The worst performers have been companies tied to the housing market and discretionary spending, such as construction companies, home improvement retailers, furniture makers and consumer electronics sellers. read more

After an erratic close Thursday that saw the Dow drift nearly 100 points in the last 30 minutes, trading was more sector rotation than broad buying or selling. Stocks got off to a strong start this week after signs of life in the housing market and a bullish analyst comment on banks sent the Dow up more than 230 points on Monday. Oil prices finished Friday slightly higher, with gasoline eyeing a new seven-month high ahead of the holiday weekend and a fleet of motorists expected on U. read more

Unfortunately, large companies attract lots of coverage from Wall Street analysts — those 71 stocks have 23 analysts following them, on average — which, as I’ve explained in an earlier column, makes them less likely to be mispriced. So if you’re like me and have less than $95 billion to invest, it makes sense for you to look at some of the stocks the Oracle wishes he could buy — small stocks. read more
