all Street is a sucker for a good comeback story, and it got plenty of them in 2013. Best Buy (NYSE: BBY) shares, for example, have zoomed nearly 250 percent higher this year. Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HPQ), the worst performer in the Dow Jones industrial average in 2012, has nearly doubled this year. Companies like E-Trade Financial (NASDAQ: ETFC), GameStop (NYSE: GME), Rite Aid (NYSE: RAD) and Yahoo (NASDAQ: YHOO) have all seen their share prices soar 100 percent or more – sometimes much more – as investors bought into their turnaround tales.
