Russ Kaplan is a leading money manager with a value-oriented and contrarian approach to very long-term investing; here's a look at his top growth idea for the coming year.
One of the few places of value in this market is the home building stocks and our Top Pick for growth-oriented investors is D. R. Horton (DHI), which is a home building stock.
D.R. Horton is more than just a homebuilder, however. Horton is involved in all aspects of the realty area. It also owns lots of property and is into title insurance.
Yes, mortgage rates have gone up, but that is already reflected in the price of the stock, which has fallen from $38 to a recent price is the $28 range. I can see it going back to $38 in the near future.
With a price/earnings ratio of 12, it is very undervalued from the market average, which is currently around 22.
There really is a D. R. Horton and he owns 7% of the company. This is not a stock for those looking for income. It only pays a little over 1%.

Advanced materials are loosely defined as those designed with enhanced properties that improve on traditionally used materials.
