    Description

    In this Issue:
    • The Oil Slick - Despite higher oil prices, we think that the economy will continue to hold up well and stocks should rebound.
    • In the Limelight
    • STARS Status - Changes in S&P analysts' STARS rankings for June 20 through June 24.
    • Picking a Financial Advisor - We would all rather plan our summer vacations than our finances. But time spent finding the right financial planner can reward you with means to fund many future vacations.
    • Favored Stocks in Underweighted Sectors - Although Standard & Poor's recommends underweighting consumer discretionary, financial, materials, and technology stocks, those sectors still hold some of our top picks. Here are five stocks we regard as strong buys.
    • Companies with a Tight Focus - Each of these companies has a specialty that has helped it capture a particular market.
    • Master List Stocks Update - Our three supervised Master List groups of stocks, recommended as core holdings for long-term investors, are regularly featured on these two pages. Group 3, highlighted this week, consists of small- and mid-cap stocks.
    • Neural Fair Value 25 Portfolio - This portfolio of 25 stocks seen as undervalued is expected to significantly outperform the S&P 500.
