The first half of 2024 is already in the books, and the S&P 500 is up almost 16%. Statistically speaking, this puts the market on pace for one of its best yearly performances ever. But this doesn't hold a candle to returns for shares of restaurant company Sweetgreen (NYSE: SG) , egg business Vital Farms (NASDAQ: VITL) , or apparel retailer Abercrombie & Fitch (NYSE: ANF) .
These three stocks have all doubled or more since the beginning of the year, leaving the S&P 500 in the dust. Indeed, this trio has performed better than most publicly traded companies so far this year.
