The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

This one? Naz 100 consolidators?

Yes, the link you posted was the original version, but later in the thread, musselmant posted a newer version. It's the second gtr1 link at

musselmant replies on new screen on Nas100 doubles its CAGR

The rationale for the screen criteria was discussed in the thread at musselmant writes on new screen on Nas100 doubles its CAGR

In particular, the step ratio(tr(1,5),tr(1,200)) bottom 10 is looking for stocks with very high 40-week momentum that had a pullback in price over the most recent week. The chart should show a steep price rise over the past 200 days, and then a flattening out (consolidation) over the past 5 days. Markman's FOG formula was similarly looking for high 52-week momentum with a consolidation over the past month.

This screen has an annualized return of 26% over the past 10 years, and is up 21% YTD according to

discussion.fool.com - Curated screens

So, yes, FOG has made a comeback.
