The 7

Here is “The 7” or in other words, the 7 key steps to help you find a great stock.

  1. Summary: On Sale
  2. Score: Equal or greater than 50. The higher the better!
  3. MOS: Equal or greater than 50%. The higher the better!
  4. 4M: Equal or greater than 80.
  5. 5Y Returns: Equal or greater than 80%. For context, the S&P 500 returns about 80% over 5 years. It’s wise to find stocks that are consistently beating the market.
  6. EPS is increasing: EPS is increasing in the last 3 quarters. (Go to the Financials tab, Income Statement, EPS, and flip to Quarterly to make sure the EPS is increasing quarter over quarter).
  7. Earnings reports: The earnings report has beat the estimates for the last 3 quarters. (Go to the Earnings Calendar tab and see if the reports are beating the estimates).

If you can find a stock that passes all 7, that is a very strong stock.

On the flip side…

If you find a stock that fails all 7, that is a very weak stock.
