POWR Ratings:

Overview & Performance


StockNews.com has created the proprietary POWR Ratings model to put the odds of investing success in your favor. That’s because our “A” rated Strong Buy stocks would have generated a compounded annual return of +28.90%.

Average annual returns calculated in a backtested study from 1/1/1999 to 12/31/2023.

Yes, the +28.56% compounded annual gain of the "A" rated Strong Buy stocks did outperform the S&P 500 by more than 4X since 1999.

Just as impressive is how we help investors avoid the worst stocks. That’s because the “F” rated Strong Sells would have tumbled an average of -20.21% a year over the same time frame.

For as good as these annual returns sound, this chart below better explains what the POWR Ratings can do for you.

Chart shows $10,000 investment in 1999 would have grown to $5,355,681 using our A rated stocks.

What’s Inside the Ratings?


This is truly one of the most complete stock ratings systems available to investors today. In fact, we analyze 118 different factors for every stock, each of them contributing a little to the stock’s likelihood of outperformance. The combination of all these factors is what leads to the +28.90% annualized return for the “A” rated stocks.

Don’t worry. You won’t need to analyze all 118 factors for each stock. We have simplified the process by narrowing it all down to an overall POWR Rating that clearly identifies whether the stock is likely to outperform (A & B rated).

The graph below shows you the bell curve distribution of the POWR Ratings to appreciate that only the top 5% are worthy of the coveted A, Strong Buy rating.

The POWR Ratings ability to quickly narrow down to the 25% of stocks likely to outperform (A & B rated) is a quantum leap forward for investors. However, with over 5,000 stocks rated by the system that means there are still over 1,250 worthy stocks to consider. This next section will help you easily narrow down that list to the precise picks you want to add to your portfolio.

7 More Grades to Select YOUR Favorite Stocks

VERY IMPORTANT!

The key thing to understand is that these component grades are ONLY to be used after first looking at the overall POWR Rating for the stock. If the stock is C, D or F rated...then remove it from your consideration.

You should focus your stock research only on those companies with an overall POWR Rating of A & B. These are the ones with the highest odds of success as attested to by the stellar annual performance.

Or to put it another way...Why would you pick a stock that was less likely to beat the market???

Once you have isolated the POWR Rating A & B stocks of interest, then you can start evaluating these stocks further based upon their 6 component grades and Industry Rating listed below.

  • Growth
  • Value
  • Momentum
  • Quality
  • Stability
  • Sentiment
  • Industry

Every investor will combine these in different ways to suit their preferences. The key is knowing that each additional A & B component grade for the stock will increase your odds of outperformance. So you might as well stack as many of them in your favor as possible.
