In the short term, because it is so B2B, should mirror S&P well. But This sector seems to have some growth left. I expect to turn into a value stock more than growth stock in the next 2-4 yrs.

287. Grainger (W.W.) Inc. (NYSE: GWW) has literally gone parabolic. Danger! Sell this one on the chart alone. A P/E over 20, outrunning analyst estimates, and a long term forecasted growth rate in the low double digits is unsustainable. This chart is set for a huge pullback. Target: $140-$160.

Still a mid-cap stock with a very low market share. Excellent business growth potential that is performing very well.

Management is very shareholder friendly (dividend achiever) and commitment to repurchasing shares (about 5% of OS anually)

Showed up on a screen for solid 5 year growth with low debt, cash on hand and still at attractive P/E ratios.

companies are often looking to spend their budgets before fiscal year and usually go on spending sprees in May-June. It's often a time to "use it or lose it" and companies buy crap on their wish-lists.

Steady performer for patient investors who want to grow a portfolio without a lot of anxiety during these volatile times. may not keep pace with the S&P in the short run but in a tortoise and hare scenario it will prevail.

Great market and strong dividend. The EPS for this stock is solid and some growth ahead.

Grainger's sales have been awesome YTD even though most industrial sectors have seen otherwise. Fastenal can't provide the value-added services that Grainger provides. The only real threat for Grainger in most markets is MSCdirect and McMaster-Carr; however, Grainger is holding their own.

Sales for June and July should be outstanding due to recent flooding in the Midwest.

Once the stock hits $98, bail and move on.
