Discover the Best Stocks in the Best Industries

Today we are going to sink our teeth into the Zen Industry Rating which is one of the best resources on our website.

First, let's discuss what it is, then 2 great ways to use it to find the best stocks. 

You already know about our Zen Ratings model for analyzing individual stocks based upon 115 different factors from growth to value to momentum…even our exclusive AI factor which finds stocks ready to outperform.

However, the stock market is often playing a game of sector rotation. If your stock is in the wrong group, it likely will underperform. Thus, it makes a lot of sense to find the best stocks in the best industries to be in now. 

Our Industry Rating accomplishes that by first dividing stocks into 145 different industry groups. Then measuring the average Zen Rating of the individual stocks in the group. 

Just like the individual stock rating the A rated industries are the best choice followed by B, C, D and F. 

The healthier the individual stocks…the healthier the industry…the more likely the industry group is ready to beat the market. 

Now let’s talk about 2 great ways to use these industry ratings. 

1) Top Down Investing

This is a tried and true method for investors that has them start with the big picture of market direction…then selecting the best industries to be in…then selecting the best stocks in those industries. 

Assuming you are still bullish, and want a healthy allocation to stocks, then the next step is to go to the Industry Rating page to peruse the current 29 A rated industries.

Next click on the industry that appeals to you to find a listing of the best stocks in the industry based on the Zen Ratings. 

For example, the second highest rated industry right now is Drug Manufacturers where there are currently 3 A rated stocks. 

This Top Down Investing method is a great way to fill out your portfolio with stocks ready to outperform. 

2) The Better Peer

It is not unusual to be attracted to a stock because of favorable industry conditions…but how can you be sure that you are buying the best stock in the group? 

Enter the “Rank in Industry” feature. 

See below the Zen Ratings analysis for Infosys (INFY) from our quote page.

Starting from the Industry section on the bottom we find that indeed Information Technology is an A rated group. So this is a good place to be. 

Unfortunately, as you look just below that you find that INFY is only the 39th best stock out of 58. This “Rank in Industry” information should compel you to find a better peer in the group. 

All you need to do is click the blue button at the bottom to “View Top Information Technology Service Stocks” which will take you to the Rank in Industry page to discover that right now there are 10 A rated stocks in the industry that are likely much better selections. 

Oh by the way, right above the Industry Rating section is the ever ready blue link that will take you to the Industry Rating home page with all 145 industries. 

What to Do Next?  

Start using the Industry Rating with both of these proven methods to find better stocks.

I am extremely confident that the more A rated stocks you own in A rated industries…the more you will enjoy the proven market beating performance packed inside the Zen Ratings.  

Wishing you a world of investment success!
