What is the Quant-15 Stocks list

Stock-picking through quantitative analysis

Background: 

The aim behind stock investments is to make money and we only do that when the stock moves; no matter how much we love or believe in the company. In order to do that, you must make a precise and emotion-free assessment of a company without falling in love with the company.

Using my 10-point stock analysis criteria, I look at the company’s profitability over the past 5 years and the next 3 years, analyst ratings, earnings report, stock/index correlation and technical analysis.

It is a 10-point criteria to determine whether the companies are creditworthy, profitable and likely to see explosive growth over the coming weeks/months or not. Before I invest my money in a company, it needs to prove to me that it’s worth investing in. Any company meeting 70% of my criteria is a buy; ones failing to meet that are a sell.

The Idea:

I scan the markets every Sunday, filtering through +30,000 companies using my criteria. Once a company is shortlisted and makes it to the top-15 list, I buy it once the market opens on Monday. Hold it as long as it remains on the top-15 list. If a company fails to meet this criteria, I sell it. Simple!

So, once I have a list of Top-15 stocks, I put 7% in each of the top 10 companies and 6% in the last 5 companies.

The list is updated and emailed to paid subscribers every week.
