The S&P jumped higher by 20% this year, the Dow +25%, and the Nasdaq +29%. By all measures, it was a phenomenal year for stocks. We should all thank President Trump for making America great again and giving us the opportunity to greedily grab a large sloppy slice of apple’d pie.
Without further delay, here were the biggest winners of 2017 — minimum market cap of $500 million, sorted by sector.

Nice call on WATT. Wish I had gotten in yesterday, not this morning.
Trade of the year (well there were many) was shorting the VIX.
That VIX run to the bottom made fools of even the sharpest minds.
QIWI bitch
QIWI forever
