The four highlighted picks are: Jabil Circuit, Inc (NYSE: JBL), Snyder's-Lance, Inc. (Nasdaq: LNCE), Wynn Resorts Ltd. (Nasdaq: WYNN) and Huntsman Corporation (NYSE: HUN).

Zacks #1 Rank Stocks have nearly tripled the S&P 500 since 1988, producing an average annual return of +26%. Performance has been notable even during volatile and down times. For example, during the last bear market, 2000-2002, the market tumbled
-37.6% – but Zacks #1 Rank stocks gained +43.8%.
Here is a summary of today's selected stocks that are now highly rated by Zacks:
Aggressive Growth – Jabil Circuit, Inc (NYSE: JBL)
Jabil Circuit, Inc shares spiked on the recent earnings surprise, but you can still get in at a good price.

Growth & Income – Snyder's-Lance, Inc. (Nasdaq: LNCE)
Snyder's-Lance, Inc. has soared nearly 50% off its 52-week low seen in July 2010. The company has managed to deliver two consecutive positive earnings surprises despite rising commodity costs and bargain-hunting consumers.

Momentum – Wynn Resorts Ltd. (Nasdaq: WYNN)
Wynn Resorts Ltd. continues to gain in the stronger global economy, recently hitting a new multi-year high at $117.50 as its new Casino in Mauco produces big returns. With a bullish next-year estimate and high industry rank, this Zacks #1 rank stock doesn't roll the dice on momentum.

Value – Huntsman Corporation (NYSE: HUN)
Huntsman Corporation grew earnings by over 100% in 2010 and is expected to see double digit earnings growth in 2011. Even though shares have soared, Huntsman is a value play, trading at just 13x forward earnings.

How to Regularly Access Top Zacks Rank Picks for Free: http://at.zacks.com/?id=7154
Underlying the four free stock picks is a simple truth that first appeared in a Financial Analysts Journal article published in 1979. Leonard Zacks, a Ph.D. in Mathematics from M.I.T. found that "earnings estimate revisions are the most powerful force impacting stock prices." Zacks #1 Rank is awarded to a stock when analysts sharply upgrade their estimates of what the company will earn.
