Given everything that is going on in the market, I thought it might be interesting to see what stocks are leading this year. As a starting point, I pulled the component stocks for the NASDAQ 100 (NDX) and ran them through a query that gave me the year-to-date returns and a few key pieces of sentiment data. The list below is sorted to show some of the top performing stocks. The names that stood out to me include, Vertex Pharmaceuticals Inc (VRTX), FLIR Systems, Inc. (FLIR), Cephalon, Inc. (CEPH), Xilinx, Inc. (XLNX), and Fastenal Company (FAST). As the spreadsheet points out, these stocks all carry a rather heavy level of short interest. A high level of short interest can lead to the potential for a short squeeze.

The recent market correction has left many investors shell-shocked and bottom pickiing value seekers in the red. From financials to tech to energy, the fate of stocks like Citi (C), Exxon (XOM), Apple (AAPL) and Google (GOOG) have left investors scratching their heads. How is it that the world's most powerful name in banking has fallen by 67% in a year for their mortgage exposure? How is Exxon at 52-week lows even as oil is still up 100% over the last year? Why are oil refiners like Valero (VLO) and Tesoro (TS) down over 50% each even as gas prices at the pump are up 30% over last year? Why is Apple down 15% this year despite selling a million 3G iPhones within 3 days of launch last month and gaining market share in PC sales? And Google, how does it drop 35% despite generating $1.
