Anchor Runners (Strong, Stable Performers):

- NVIDIA Corp. (NVDA) — 150 metersReason: A tech giant with strong earnings potential. Though currently overvalued, it's a solid long-term performer.Weight: ~15%
Mid-Distance Runners (Steady Growth and Value Plays):
- KB Home (KBH) — 120 metersReason: Offers strong growth potential with a good margin of safety and undervaluation.Weight: ~12%
- PayPal Holdings (PYPL) — 120 metersReason: Reliable with a decent balance of value and forward growth potential. Great for handling a mid-range section of the relay.Weight: ~12%
- Synchrony Financial (SYF) — 100 metersReason: Moderate value with a strong margin of safety and growth opportunity.Weight: ~10%
- Core & Main Inc. (CNM) — 80 metersReason: While a bit speculative, it has decent growth prospects and is relatively undervalued.Weight: ~8%

- Weight: ~6%
Summary:
- Stable performers like Alphabet (GOOGL) and NVIDIA (NVDA) take the longer legs due to their reliability.
- Mid-range stocks like KB Home (KBH) and PayPal (PYPL) provide solid growth with manageable risk.
