Do you want to outsmart financial analyst?

12/3/2017

 
It was one of those days at Stock Card HQ! One of those heated conversations, banging on the table, leaving the room, going for a walk to calm down type of days... What were we talking about?
To answer the question, I have to take you back to a few months ago when Lauren Templeton and Scott Phillips from Templeton and Phillips Capital Management published their quarterly letter. Often, their letters exude pessimism about the market and as such make it for a fun and entertaining read. Call us investment nerds, but that's how we spend our weekends. Anyhow, in the latest edition of Lauren and Scott's letter, they argued how institutional investors and fund managers are getting overexcited about a few hundred stocks so much so that a company such as Apple has made its way into 155 ETFs including six value ETFs, five momentum ETFs, and ten growth ETFs. These two masters of stock market criticism argue that while "a growth company like Apple can fall out of favor and become a value, the contrast between value and momentum is too stark." How could Apple be a value, growth, and momentum stock all at once?! 
Picture
We picked up the letter from where Scott and Lauren left off, and concluded, if institutional and professional fund managers are overexcited about the big and buzz companies, they must be missing some great companies. And, that's where the heated conversations started... who are they? how do we find them? 
...
We went on a hunt... We started from the twenty-one thousand and so stocks we have at our disposal to invest in. We then removed all companies that have signs of operational weakness. After all, we never invest in companies that do not operate as well as the big and buzz. But then we took one step further and sorted out the results by the number of professional and institutional investors.  The results were ... drum roll ...
​

Nineteen companies ... nineteen stocks that professional money managers had missed... ​
