3 Stocks That Went Up More Than 50% in 2020 and Aren't in the Tech Sector

We're all aware by now that hot tech stocks like Zoom Video Communications and Tesla had a fantastic year in 2020 (up about 490% and 680%, respectively). But those are the outliers. There are a bunch of other stocks that aren't talked about as much that had good -- if not spectacular -- performances in 2020, and may have more gas left in the tank at this point than those high-flying tech stocks.

We asked three of our Motley Fool contributors what stocks surprised them in 2020 with gains of 50% or more. They came back with Darling Ingredients (NYSE: DAR), Altra Industrial Motion (NASDAQ: AIMC), and Plug Power (NASDAQ: PLUG). Here's why they think these are stocks to watch... or avoid.
