The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" 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.

Well, I look at the stocks first, then the methodology, then *maybe* the guru. 
If I feel comfortable owning, or already own the stock, then I look at the overlapping MI screens.
fwiw, While Tom's methodology is reasonable for non-dividend stocks, I use different parameters for dividend stocks.

Exceptional: Some of these stocks appear on MI screens, particularly ROE_Cash, which also overlaps the SPY/QQQ largest holdings.

Watchlist: IIRC, MSFT, AMZN, TSLA were selected in earlier months and years. AMZN and TSLA have been dropping off the screens.
This matches Tom's lower recommendations for these stocks.

Tom's 2027 picks:

"Exceptional"
PLTR Palantir Technologies 125 / 125 Exceptional Added Oct 2020
GOOGL Alphabet 120 / 125 Exceptional Added Dec 2025
NVDA NVIDIA 115 / 125 Exceptional Added Oct 2020
ARM Arm Holdings 115 / 125 Exceptional Added Aug 2025
APP AppLovin 110 / 125 Exceptional Not on the sheet
CRWD CrowdStrike 105 / 125 Exceptional Added Mar 2021

Watchlist
MSFT Microsoft 95 / 125 Watchlist, investable Added Jan 2021
AMZN Amazon.com 85 / 125 Watchlist, investable Added Mar 2021
TSLA Tesla 80 / 125 Watchlist, investable Added Oct 2020
BE Bloom Energy 80 / 125 Watchlist, investable Added Feb 2026
