We are looking for U.S.-listed stocks that are outperforming the market

The Nasdaq Composite index is up more than 20 per cent year-to-date after surpassing 13,700, which was a key resistance price level, on Aug. 15 of last year. The S&P 500 index is up about 9.8 per cent this year and is currently testing 4,200, a technical resistance level that is heavily watched by traders. A break above 4,200 could very well diminish fears of the old adage “Sell in May and go away.” A few sectors are providing the momentum in U.S.

Next, we screened for the top-ranked stocks using Trading Central’s Quantamental rating method, a proprietary stock-rating methodology that covers more than 50,000 stocks worldwide. This metric rates stocks on a scale of one to 10 with 10 being the most bullish and one being the most bearish. The rating uses a combination of valuation, growth, quality, price momentum and income as key metrics when ranking a company.

We were interested in stocks that are indicating five-year EPS growth of at least 10 per cent. We like companies that have a proven track record of increasing their earnings per share. Finally, in order to screen out companies that are using a lot of leverage in a high-interest rate environment, we capped stocks at a debt-to-equity ratio of one.

For informational purposes, we have also included one-year price performance, the recent stock price, price/earnings, and dividend yield.is a global leader in financial market research and investment analytics for retail online brokers and institutions.
