Selected US Growth Stocks

This portfolio contains a selection of stocks listed on major US stock exchanges. The selection criteria are: - alpha from the market model (or single index model) must be positive and statistically significant, - the estimate of beta from the market model must be greater than 0 and less then 1.1, (the estimate is usually very significant) - earnings per share (EPS) must be positive, - stocks with a PE ratio of 66 or higher are eliminated. - other evaluation criteria are the payout ratio, expected EPS growth, return on equity, EBIT margin, and common equity to total asset ratio. If a stock falls significantly relative to the DJIA it will be sold. The portfolio will be rebalanced towards the end of the calendar year. My preferred data sources are: The companies' web sites, The Wall Street Journal, yahoo finance, and EDGAR of the US SEC.
