Evaluating Earnings(1)
Unless you have time to sift through endless earnings reports, odds are you'll miss out on those companies announcing superior earnings.
And how do you know the difference between a one-hit wonder
and a potential stock market winner when you are looking at raw earnings numbers on thousands of companies?
Investor's Business Daily compares the earnings performance of all domestically traded stocks each day using its proprietary Earnings Per Share Rating.
The EPS Rating measures each stock on a scale of 1 to 99 (99 being best) for a quick assessment.
An 80 EPS Rating means that stock is outperforming 80% of all other stocks based on earnings growth.
Seen another way, a stock with an EPS Rating of 80 is in the top 20% of all stocks in terms of recent quarterly and annual earnings growth.
Our research shows that the stocks that make powerful gains usually have an EPS Rating of 80 to 85 or higher.
