The "ROCKET" Process
We start by analyzing 1,500 chart patterns weekly with the goal of locating emerging sectors, stocks, and/or general market directions. After we identify sectors and the stocks within those sectors that meet our technical screen, we utilize fundamental analysis to determine the best individual stocks to own. We call the totality of this endeavor the ROCKET process, which is outlined below:
Rapid revenue and earnings growth
Obvious leader in its category
Competitive edge within its sector
Keep it small greater upside potential
Economic effects of supply/demand
Technical analysis to decide timing
We then compare favorable stocks to our two Watch List of 80 stocks. The final step in our methodology is executed by constantly monitoring the "Watch List," both technically and fundamentally, to see if any of those stocks should be added to the portfolio as a new position or as a replacement for a current holding. The end product results in a portfolio of 20-30 rapidly growing small companies that are diversified across all 11 sectors of the U.S. economy.
