Top Stocks Of The Decade

The top 10 performing S&P 500 stocks of the decade may surprise you with only a couple of household names on the list.

Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) was the top performer on the list with returns of 3990% but was the only FAANG stock that made the list of top decade gainers.

The next stock on the list was MarketAxess (NASDAQ:MKTX) with 2650% returns this decade. This company revolutionized digital trading in the credit markets for institutional investors, creating a liquid and transparent exchange for fixed income assets.

Abiomed (NASDAQ:ABMD) and its artificial heart would have been the highest performing stock if it hadn’t broken down over 40% in the past year. Still, it was able to return investors 1840% since December 31st, 2009.

We had a few unsurprising semiconductors on the list as these companies made a name for themselves in their respective spaces. Broadcom (NASDAQ:AVGO) amassed 1670% gains over the last decade, and Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) demonstrated an 1160% share price appreciation.

One of the most surprising stocks on this list to me was equipment rental company United Rentals (NYSE:URI) , which returned 1590% to investors.

Keep an eye on Zacks top picks as well as our subscription portfolios for this next decade's winners.
