(Photo by Larry Placido/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images) Most Apple fans on Wall Street have probably never heard of Fastenal. But its shares have been beating Apple’s big time. Since it went public, Fastenal has gained 13,428.60% compared to 1,365.10% of Apple’s. Why bother comparing Apple, a technology company, with a wholesale distributor of industrial and construction supplies? As a lesson for investors who chase after hot stocks and end up missing sleeper stocks. Fastenal achieved these numbers through multiple advantages that keep competition out of its market and allow it to sustain above industry average rate of profits. Fastenal’s operating margin is twice that of Home Depot, for example. Last week, the company reported a 43% jump in earnings and a 13% rise in sales for its June quarter. Company Operating Margin Margin Fastenal 19.95% 13.66% Home Depot 14.42 8.85 Lowe’s 9.42 5.54
