I ran a simulation (weekly rebalance) that bought the top 20 from the 2020 list last year based on my best ranking system and it did 3x vs. picking the top 20 from the SP500 universe!
Here’s an idea. Create a hybrid contest where we are limited to the universe of all top 20 picks. Run them through our various systems, and create a new 20 stock portfolio from that universe. Anyone?
I know a one year contest is fun and can stir conversation but everyone knows it’s a minimum of 3 - 5 years that really counts OS. Imagine if you had to put up 100k to manage for years 5 years the entry fee was 10k and the winner takes only your entry fee. How many people would enter? In the mean time 1 year is fun. I have not seen anything like this advertised I think the #1 reason is legal. The number 2 reason it’s hard to win. Imagine your entries 5 years ago versus today. Yes a little different.
my entries;
i usually submit multiple entries from different sources (Kiplinger, Crossing Wallstreet).
as this thread, asked to submit one entry; i am submitting midcap growth stocks for this year 2021.
Momentum&Sentiment are the only ranking systems working with these type of stocks, most of them with zero dividends.
Here are the weights I used for the P123 ranking systems.
There were 10 lists posted in this forum from which I created a universe which holds 179 stocks (there was an overlap of 21 stocks).
Here is a live strategy (public) which selects the top 20 stocks from this universe. Let’s see how this performs for the year. https://www.portfolio123.com/port_summary.jsp?portid=1635282
