Starving in the midst of plenty, some stocks got roughed up in the fourth quarter even as the market rose. It’s a roster I compile quarterly, containing stocks that have been wounded and that I think will recover. One that I like is CVS (CVS), down 11% in the quarter. A few years ago CVS was a conventional drugstore chain, selling general merchandise (including cigarettes) along with health products and prescriptions. Given the increasing creakiness of my (baby boom) generation, and the health consciousness of younger generations, I think CVS is well positioned.
