Top Names, 5/16/2024

Continuing our core strategy while updating our performance.

Our Core Strategy

Our core strategy is to buy equal dollar amounts of the Portfolio Armor web app’s top ten names, put trailing stops of 10%-15% on them, and replace them with names from the current week’s top ten when we get stopped out of a position.

A Top Names Performance Update

Before we get to this week’s top ten names, let’s look at the final, 6-month performance of our top ten names from November 16th, 2023.

Over the next six months, our top ten names from November 16th were up 36.87%, on average, versus up 17.9% for the SPDR S&P 500 Trust (SPY 0.00%↑).

Here’s how all of our top ten names cohorts since we started this Substack have performed so far over the next six months.
