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.

"Summary:
It appears that in a good year selecting the best 300 stocks by ROE
and taking the best 100 of these by 5-year-revenue-growth in equal
weight and holding for a year slightly beats the SP&500 index fund and
the Russell 1000 index fund".

"Puts together several good factors:
* A highly ranked set of companies (the top 1000 companies by market capitalization in the United States)
* Valueline Timeliness rating
* High return-on-equity (ROE)
* High 5-year revenue growth
* Infequent trading
* Equal weighted, not cap-weighted"


This is propably about as close to that strategy as I can create with Fidelity's screener.
I actually invested in something similar for a couple months with 15 stock picks.
