AAPL - My Top 5 Stocks To Own In The S&P 500
Summary
- Not all portfolios need big-name S&P 500 stocks or passive index products for upside. Seeking Alpha’s quant strategy frequently delivers stock recommendations with much stronger investment fundamentals.
- Outperforming the top 5 market cap stocks in the S&P 500, SA’s quant-inspired picks highlight how stocks selected based on strong financial factors can maximize diversification and minimize concentration risk.
- Four of the S&P 500’s top five stocks (nearly 20% weighting) are mega-tech companies. In 2022, tech took a beating, with the Nasdaq -33.89% and S&P 500 -19.95%.
- The top 5 S&P 500 behemoths have earnings misses and downward analyst revisions. These trends validate investors’ concern for slower revenue growth and weakening profitability, impacts of an uncertain economic outlook.
- SA’s quant picks are fundamentally strong. In addition to solid profitability, my quant picks from the S&P 500 are based on collective metrics like value, growth, momentum, and upward EPS revisions.
