The following video is part of our nationally syndicated Motley Fool Money radio show, in which host Chris Hill and advisors Ron Gross, James Early, and Seth Jayson analyze the week’s business and investing news. This week's guest, nationally syndicated radio host and best-selling author Dave Ramsey, cites Apple as one of the companies able to succeed during tough economic times. On the heels of strong earnings from Starbucks and Whole Foods, the guys spotlight stocks from high-end retailers that are delivering strong returns despite the sluggish economy.
