The 5 Best Large Caps

Who says Large Caps move slower than Small Caps?  Today I used Barchart to sort the S&P 500 Large Caps stocks to find the ones that have hit new highs most frequently on the last month.  I then used the Flipchart feature to review the charts.

Today's list includes Marathon Petroleum (MPC), Vulcan Materials (VMC), Valero Energy (VLO), Phillips 66 (PSX) and Northrop Grumman (NOC):
