2013 Proved to be a great year for those invested in domestic equity, with the S&P 500 alone yielding almost 30%. A performance not seen in more than one decade. 

Although Wall Street in general was highly profitable this year, there are some winners that are worth to mention for their outstanding returns:

1. Netflix, Inc. (NFLX) +300%
2. Best Buy Co., Inc. (BBY) +238%
3. Micron Technology Inc. (MU) +228%
4. Delta Air Lines Inc. (DAL) +125%
5. Pitney Bowes Inc. (PBI) +116%

Last year (2013) stock markets logged the best returns we have seen in over a decade, a performance not seeing since 1997. This is the final scoreboard:

S&P 500: 1,848.3 (26.39%)

Nasdaq: 4,176.5 (34.20%)

Dow: 16,576.6 (23.59%)
