Power Trends+: The Best and Worst of the Stocks You Asked About

Jason Bodner

We’ve received an overwhelming response from you and your fellow Power Trends readers. We’ve asked which stocks you wanted us to analyze, and we got over 40 requests in just the few weeks we’ve been bringing you Power Trends+. That’s incredible! I decided to run all of your recommendations through my Quantum Edge system to see how they shaped up. Remember, the Quantum Score tells us quickly whether a stock is a good buy or not.

I Was an Awful Trader Until This – You Can Use It, Too

Jason Bodner

I started my investing career more than two decades ago as a trader, and I stunk at it. In my first three weeks, I made every mistake in the book. Greedily chasing a stock that was ripping higher? I did that. Buying a falling stock because I had a “gut feeling” it would turn around? Did that, too. Following the herd into a crowded trade? Add that to the list as well.

All Eyes Are on the Banks, But Here are My Top-Ranked Financials

Jason Bodner

One of the four most exciting times of the year for investors kicked off yesterday as the biggest banks in the country reported quarterly results. What’s that you say? Earnings are confusing… even boring? Yeah, I can see that. But I’m enough of a stock nerd to love earnings season. And I’m enough of a quantitative analyst to want as much data as possible to make the smartest decisions… and make the most money.

Don’t Let the Inflation Rollercoaster Scare You Out of Stocks

Jason Bodner

Rollercoasters seem to be one of those love ’em or hate ’em kind of things. Personally, I’m a huge fan – of the amusement park ones, that is. But whether you like those or not, we all hate the inflation-interest rate coaster we’re riding right now. On Wednesday, consumer prices rose more than expected. Down we go. Today, wholesale prices rose less than expected. Ahhh… a smoother stretch. We’ve been on this ride for two years now – since March 16, 2022 – and you can see the ups and downs in the S&P 500 along the way.
