Equities.com Small-Cap Stars - Small-Cap Stocks You Can't Get Enough Of
Predicting the preferences of consumers isn't easy, and you could drive yourself crazy trying to anticipate them. However, the Small-Cap Stars system helps identify those companies with a fundamentally strong foundation that should carry them to success.
Our systems starts by looking at past successes among small-cap consumer goods companies, creates a profile of those successful companies using a complex statistical regression factoring in dozens of metrics, and then identifies those current companies that best resemble those successful stocks immediately before their big gains.
Among those traits found to be most predictive of success, we found that high levels of cash as a percentage of total assets and a high level of net income trailing twelve months were some of the strongest signs for a small-cap consumer goods company.
