A lot of the strongest companies did (like JNJ, WMT, VZ) Most likely investors are buying for the secure dividends, since Treasuries yield crap nowadays and those companies are in better shape than Uncle Sam anyways

I was surprised

I was just looking at some of the Dow components and HD was one I noticed moved higher and it seemed odd because I associated it with the housing market and didn't think it would move like that. Must be a lot of do it yourself or home improvement going on. So I went over the 30 components and ATT also did good, as well as WMT and VZ. AA got crused in the last year as well as CAT and HPQ. I guess its just hard to figure out why some companies just buck the trend with the Dow being basically flat for the last year.
