Objective

The Analyst Growth folio was designed for investors seeking high capital appreciation potential with volatility and asset turnover generally higher than the overall U.S. equity market.

Strategy

The Analyst Growth folio consists of stocks that equity analysts predict will have the highest earnings growth in the next year.

This folio is based on the concept that companies which analysts predict will have the highest earnings growth may also have the highest upside potential. Note that markets and economic conditions can change quickly, and well-liked companies can quickly go out of favor. There is an added component of volatility when high growth companies miss analyst’s earning expectations.
