Goals

This web site was designed to show the returns of investing in the stock market following the most reliable method we were able to implement after a long research. All the trades listed on this page are executed by us in a real portfolio using a brokerage account and posted on the site as soon as technically possible. We neither encourage nor discourage you to invest in the stock market or follow our trades.The reason for posting our trades online is to help individual investors answer for themselves the wide spread question: “can the market be beaten?”

 

Why did we start researching the stock market

Being frustrated by statistics that show that the vast majority of the mutual funds underperforms a broad index such as S&P500, we started looking for proven ways to consistently outperform the market.

 

How we pick the stocks

We researched strategies used by legendary investors such as Benjamin Graham, Warren Buffet, Peter Lynch, Ken Fisher, O’Neil, Martin Zweig and many others, as well as different valuation models and decided to use a combination of all to enhance the stock selection performance. Similar trade selection methods were followed since 1998 by American Association of Individual Investors (AAII)

As you can see from the tables below, this method does not rely on day-trading as the minimum holding period for each security is 30 days.

In the tables below are listed all the trades we execute regardless whether they are profitable or not.
