Want to discover a stock-picking strategy that was well above the S&P 500 (SPY) in 2022? Then read on to appreciate this revolutionary, which should benefit you greatly in 2023 and beyond. Read on for the full story below.

The 2022 bear market was a serious wake-up call for investors.

The harsh reality is that many of the methods that seemed to work so well in recent years…were a death sentence when the bear market came out of hibernation.

First and foremost was the idea to buy “fashionable“Growth stocks like Roku and Tesla regardless of nosebleed valuations. That party came to a very ugly end last year.

So if those things don’t work… what will?

That will be the focus of this commentary as I discuss a three-step evolution in stock picking that has led many on the path to superior performance. Hopefully, it provides insight into a strategy that will increase your chances of investment success in the new year.

Stock Selection Method 1.0

To tell you the solution, I must first point out the problem. And that’s the flawed way most of us research stocks. For that purpose, I will give you an outline of how the average person goes about this vital task…then I will point out a better path.

Let’s say you read an article where an expert recommends 3 stocks that they think are great. From there we will probably surf to your favorite investment websites for additional information, a combination of the following:

• What does the company do? (Industrial sector)
• View the recent price action
• Discover some key metrics about growth, value or company finances
• Read additional articles that tell us a little more about the company’s growth story giving us confidence that it is an attractive investment going forward.

So what’s the problem with this approach?

Firstly, it is quite time consuming as you realize that this manual method will be applied to every single rated stock.

Second, and most importantly, you really don’t cover that much ground. This means there are literally thousands of data points you could examine for any stock to assess how healthy they are… and how they stack up against the competition.

But if we’re being honest, this outdated method only leads to a review of 5-10 aspects of a company before we decide to place a trade. It is simply not complete enough to assess the odds in your favor, leading to…

Stock Selection Method 2.0

The solution is to automate this approach. Like using computer models to scan more factors of these companies in milliseconds. This is why so many investors have turned to quantitative ratings as a means of finding the best stocks.

In that area, our proprietary POWR Ratings model helps thousands of investors do just that. To scan each stock based on 118 different factors in a range of areas from growth to value to sentiment to momentum to stability and fundamental strength (quality).

Why these 118 factors?

Because the data scientist who created the POWR ratings has proven that each of these individual 118 factors makes stocks likely to outperform the market. So what we say, this model gives you 118 advantages to find stocks that need to rise above the pack.

Proof of that claim is clearly verified in the following performance chart, where our top-rated stocks have greatly outperformed the overall market:

Yes, I could end the article here. Because using our POWR ratings will deliver on the promise of this article… to help you find stocks that will outperform in the coming year.

However, there is one more glaring problem that needs to be solved. That’s because if you use the method above, you’re still left with about 1,300 Buy-rated stocks to review. Just too much for the average person to sort through in a reasonable time frame. That’s why we created…

Stock Selection Method 3.0

As CEO of StockNews.com, I realized that we had to go above and beyond for customers. To break down these 1,300 stocks into a more digestible form so that investors can enjoy outperformance more easily.

This culminated in the creation of a series of newsletters that beat the market and use the POWR ratings for the major styles of stock investing. See the list of newsletters below and the current number of choices in each service to understand what I mean:

Each newsletter portfolio has a very manageable number of choices. And we are only talking about 45 transactions in total.

Plus 3 more trades are underway for Tuesday morning to kick-start the new year.

All calculated as winners by our proven quantitative model.

All hand-picked by our Editors to be the best of the best.

Here’s 1 more innovation

Historically, we let customers take 30-day trials for each newsletter individually, because that’s standard industry practice.

But what if you’re curious about all the services to see which ones are the best for you in the future?

And that’s why we created POWR Platinum. This is a bundle that gives you access to all our active trading newsletters at once.

Not just the 6 newsletters and their 45 transactions mentioned above. POWR Platinum also includes 2 other popular services:

• POWR trends– In-depth commentary and top picks from the most exciting growth trends from EV to space exploration to Internet of Things to genomics and more.
• POWR Ratings Premium – As an added bonus, you also get a subscription to this service that gives you full access to our coveted POWR ratings for over 5,300 stocks and 2,000 ETFs. This is the perfect complement to the active trading newsletters, making POWR Platinum a complete investment resource.

There really is something here for every style of investor. Whether you want growth, value, technical analysis, market timing and more.

$1 for a 30-day trial of POWR Platinum

Yes, just $1 for a 30-day trial of all our services that beat the market. And while it won’t be $1 forever, you’ll be amazed at the cheap options after the trial ends.

I truly believe that POWR Platinum with all its services to beat the market in total is the ultimate investor toolkit and a real game changer for individual investors.

In fact, I am so convinced that POWR Platinum has the ability to significantly impact your investment results and help you outperform the market for the rest of the year that I want to remove any possible barriers so that you can get it out of the first hand experienced and risk-free.

If you choose to continue beyond the 30-day trial (and we think you will), I offer a 100% money-back guarantee after the trial converts to a paid subscription.

Put another way, if 30 days doesn’t seem long enough to make a decision on whether POWR Platinum is the best investment resource out there, take up to 90 more days to decide, risk-free to you.

I think the choice is clear.

Get started with your trial today and start beating the market in the new year!
