Last time I was screening top yielding stocks among S&P500 components and this time I run my fundamental stock screen for growth stocks. I set as a criteria “Estimated earnings growth for next 5 years” to be at least 25% per year. There are 18 companies with such a projected growth. For better picture I’ve also added P/E ratio and share price return on yearly and quarterly basis.
Investing strategy based on strong projected EPS growth shows following results. S&P 500 index is yearly down by -18% and average return for selected stocks is up by 20%. On quarterly basis S&P 500 down by -9% and again beaten by growth stock with average return -2%.
