Report Card Stocks PBR1000 PBR25 Investing Investor

The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks 12 Month Report Card for March, 2021, gets an ‘D+’ for falling short of its forecast, but exceeding two of the three major US stock indices.

By Larry C. Paxton

Welcome to The March 2021 The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks 12 Month Report Card.

As investors we count on professional stock analysts to provide comprehensive and diligent research to come up with their best take on how stocks will perform over the next 12 months. We then use that information to help us make stock buy, hold and sell decisions.

The PBR25 Premise

The premise of The PBR25 is that there is a high probability of success for investing in stocks when a large enough number professional stock analysts through their extensive research determine that a stock is a “Buy” and also forecasts a significant return over the next 12 months. PBRMarketTools assigns a Report Card grade based on how the professional stock analysts did.

Last 12 Months Influences

It is difficult to forecast a result with much accuracy over a 12 month period. For example, the 12 month period included the invasion of Ukraine by Russia starting February 24, 2022, which no one predicted 12 months earlier. The COVID-19 pandemic also continued with new variants causing havoc throughout the 12 months, with the total US death toll approaching one million over the two plus years of the pandemic. The effects created a lot of unemployment, affected many economic sectors like hospitality and travel services, closed schools, forced people to work from home, and much more. But there has also been a significant recovery as societies continue to try to regain a sense of “normalcy.” Inflation rates skyrocketed, but were expected to be transitory. However, the high levels have continued, and the US Federal Reserve is has started increasing short term interest rates. There also continues to be the aftermath of a very contentious 2020 US Presidential and general election process, which also created a lot of confusion and strife, with the major action being the attack on the US Capital Building on January 6, 2021. 12 months later The US House of Representatives continues to actively pursue investigations and convictions of people involved as the 2022 midterm elections come into play.  There are a lot more factors, but this is not meant to be an opinions post. It is a piece focused on the review of the recommendations stock analysts came up with at the end of March 2021 and the actual results 12 months later at the end of March 2022. PBRMarketTools is calling this a Report Card.

For this March 2021 Report Card we used stock data and forecasts from April 1, 2021, and compare it to the actual results on March 31, 2022.

Creating The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks List for March 2021

The starting point is the prestigious The PBR1000 US Public Companies, produced monthly by PBRMarketTools. To be included in The PBR1000 the 1,000 companies must meet the following criteria:

  • The companies must be publicly traded on the NYSE, NYSE American or NASDAQ stock exchanges, with a very few temporarily trading on the Over-The-Counter market because they are transitioning from bankruptcy.
  • They must be headquartered in the US or have primary operations in the US.
  • They must have generated at least $1 billion in revenues in their most recent full fiscal year.
  • They must file an annual 10-K form with the US Securities and Exchange Commission in US dollars
  • Each of the 1,000 companies is given a primary ranking based on revenues, with the company having the highest revenue amount ranked 1(currently Walmart). There are 27 secondary rankings in The PBR1000 based on other criteria as well.

Each month the 12 month estimates and recommendations by stock analysts are updated on The PBR1000. The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks list for February 2021 was then created using the following process:

  • At any point in time The PBR1000 has around 15,000 stock analyst recommendations.
  • The PBR1000 is sorted several times to come up with The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks, made up of stocks that are rated a “Buy” by analysts, have a 12 Month Forecasted % Change of at least +20%, and have at least 10 “Buy” recommendations.

Actual Results for The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks for March 2021

  • No companies on the list were acquired or merged during the 12 month period.
  • None of The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks for March 2021 did a stock split during the 12 months, so no data was altered for this report.

Following is a table of characteristics and 12 month actual results for the The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks on April 1, 2021, which we are calling the March 2021 report card.

Conclusions, Observations, Validations and Realities

  • If you had bought 1 share each of The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks at the closing price on April 1, 2021, $7,068.44, you would have achieved a +7.70% gain 12 months later at the close on March 31, 2022, $7,612.96, significantly less than the+27.24% forecast of  $8,993.84, historically a less than average 12 month return, much below the 12 month forecast, which was above the returns on the DJIA, NASDAQ, but below the S&P500 indices. For this reason The March 2021 The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks gets an ‘D+’ on its 12 month Report Card, only because it did have a positive return and exceeded 2 of the 3 major US stock indices.
  • It is difficult to forecast out 12 months with any great accuracy, there are just too many variables and uncertainties.
  • However, it does demonstrate that The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks is a valid methodology and process for that particular month.
  • One of our demonstration accounts, The Charlie Fund, uses the popular “Dollar Cost Averaging Investment Strategy” with the monthly The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks as the primary research tool. For the 12 Month Report Card period it achieved a greater than 30% return, a further validation of the methodology.
  • There are no guarantees! The reality is that there will always be ups and downs in the stock market and people make stocks buy, hold and sell decisions based on a wide range of  logical and emotional criteria, input from knowledgeable hard-working experts and well meaning friends, and if the sky is blue today. But the historical data is pretty convincing that stocks will trend up at an above average investment rate over the long haul.

Additional Information

  • The details of this summary, including company names and the over 200 fields of information for each company, were extracted from the updated The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks MS-Excel worksheet for March 2022, and has been distributed to The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks Subscribers for their personal use and further research

The Week 13 of 2022 US Stock Market News Recap

The Week 13 of 2022 US Stock Market News Recap

stock market bull bear stocks investing investor PBR1000

In Week 13 The Stock Market Bull starts strong, falters, makes a comeback on Friday, has to settle for a 2-1 mixed win, just misses out on his first trifecta of the year.

By Larry C. Paxton

The US Stock Market Week 13 Summary:

The Stock Market Bull was anxious to get his first trifecta of weekly wins in 2022, charged into the Wall Street Bullpen, aggressively took Monday and Tuesday, and looked poised to take Week 13 in a convincing way. But The Stock Market Bear decided he wanted to play as well and overwhelmed The Stock Market Bull on Wednesday and Thursday and the month of March ends on a down note. Nevertheless, The Stock Market Bull gets his first monthly win of 2022. Both were exhausted at the ringing of the bell on Friday, but somehow The Stock Market Bull managed to keep the NASDAQ, took the S&P500 by the narrowest of margins, but fell just short of retaking the DJIA. The Stock Market Bull misses his trifecta, but does get a 2-1 mixed win for Week 13.

The Week 12 of 2022 US Stock Market News Recap

Stock Market Bull Bear Investing Investor Stocks

The Stock Market Bull pulls out another win in Week 12 of 2022. How much longer will it take him to catch up to The Stock Market Bear YTD?

By Larry C. Paxton

The US Stock Market Week 12 Summary:

After losing Week 11 by a large margin The Stock Market Bear viciously took no prisoners on Monday to start Week 12. But The Stock Market Bull struck back even stronger to take Tuesday. This only riled up The Stock Market Bear who returned the favor to take Wednesday. Like a sumo wrestling match The Stock Market Bull returned to the pasture on Thursday and bounced The Stock Market Bear over the fence. The Stock Market Bear re-entered on Friday but it was a feeble attempt. The Stock Market Bull gets his two weeks in a row victory in Week 12, is still quite a bit behind year-to-date, the world is still in chaos over Russia’s attack on Ukraine, inflationary pressures, the COVID-19 pandemic that that won’t go away, and only a single number one seed left in the NCAA Men’s Basketball March Madness championship. But the economy remains strong and growing. Can The Stock Market Bull keep up his first win streak in 2022? Read what the experts say and place your bets!

Influences/News:

  • Ukraine is still being attacked by Russia, but the ground effort seems stalled and the primary damage is being done by artillery and cruise missiles. NATO and EU meetings in Europe that included US President Biden end with continuing resolve to be united against Russia and with additional military resources and financial aid being provided to Ukraine, but still not willing to move on the pleas of Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s requests to establish a “No Fly Zone.” Additional sanctions are also place on Russia and its oligarchs. US President Biden visits Poland to spend time with US troops and to let Poland know the US is behind them as it continues to be the primary destiny for Ukrainian refugees. It was also announced that a LNG deal for the US to provide Europe with 15 billion cubic meters liquified natural gas has been agreed to which will help Europe lessen its dependency on Russian oil.
  • The latest COVID-19 BA.2 variant continues to spread rapidly, cases are mostly mild, but uncertainty about the end of the pandemic remains.
  • North Korea does another ballistic test which appears to have been successful.
  • US Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson appears before the Senate Judiciary Committee to answer questions, which were mostly partisan in nature. At the end of the hearings it appears she will be approved by the committee and her nomination will go before the Senate where the Democrats have a slight edge. There is also some talk that some Republicans might vote in the affirmative as well. Polls of US citizens indicate approval of KBJ.
  • In US economic news the Chicago Fed National Activity Index indicated a slight decline in the economy in February; New Home Sales declined by 2.0% to an annual rate of 770,000 units in February and by 6.2% from a year ago, median new home price is at $400,600; average US Mortgage Rates for a 30 year fixed rate climbed from 4.16% to 4.42% in the latest week; the US International Account Deficit for 2021 is at $822 billion, a further 33.4% decline from 2020; the U of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index finished March at 59.7, the lowest in 11 years; US Weekly Initial Jobless Claims fell to 187,000, the lowest since 1969.

The Week 10 of 2022 US Stock Market News Recap

The Week 10 of 2022 US Stock Market News Recap

Stock Market Bull Bear Stocks Investing Recap

Week 10 is another weekly win for The Stock Market Bear as investors dwell on Russia’s continuing attack on Ukraine and inflation.

By Larry C. Paxton

The US Stock Market Week 10 Summary:

Like Russia’s continuing assault on Ukraine, The Stock Market Bear took his seventh week of 2022, Week 10, by inflicting major losses on Monday and Tuesday, was briefly interrupted by a successful counteroffensive by The Stock Market Bull on Wednesday, but then returned to make big gashes on the markets again on Thursday and Friday. With the Russia/Ukraine War intensifying, high inflation worries escalating, and the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, what will it take for The Stock Market Bull to prevent a trifecta of weekly losses in Week 11?

Influences/News:

  • Russia’s attacks in Ukraine continue to be the major headlines. The world continues to watch anxiously as diplomatic efforts have failed so far. On the other hand, while Russia’s military offensive continues, it also seems somewhat vulnerable to the defenses and counterattacks by a determined, courageous, and brave Ukraine military and its volunteers. The Russians anticipated a 3 day war, and now it is in its 14th day. There has been a lot of destruction and human suffering, but there is no clear victory for Russian’s efforts to this point, even as the US, European Union and NATO offer moral support through economic sanctions but offering limited military support for Ukraine. What happens next can only be conjectures and based primarily on Russia’s actions, but the extremes range from Russia’s complete retreat to it defiantly unleashing its nuclear arsenal resulting in a civilization ending worldwide holocaust.
  • In other international news North Korea continues to test fire missiles, some of which appear to be capable of striking the US.
  • The Iran nuclear talks have been paused.
  • The COVID-19 pandemic has now claimed over 6 million lives worldwide and nearly 1 million in the US. However, rates of infections, hospitalizations, and deaths are dropping. There are concerns that there will be future variants, and that societies will have to develop strategies to deal with it forever, just like we have for the flu and other diseases.
  • In the US central Iowa experienced a series of killer tornados.
  • In some key US economic news consumer credit grew by 6.8% in January, the slowest pace in a year; wholesale trade was up 4.0% in January, +22.4% over the past 12 months; US international trade in January showed a deficit of $89.7 billion, the January 2021 deficit was at $65.2 billion; the consumer price index over the past 12 months, or the inflation rate, was +7.9%, highest in 40 years; the federal government spending deficit for February 2022 was at $217 billion, it was $311 billion in February 2021; the price for a gallon of gas is well above $4, with inflation and the Russia/Ukraine War contributing to that rise.
  • US Major League Baseball and the Players Union have agreed on terms, the 2022 season will be delayed by about a week, and all games will be played.
  • The Beijing 2022 Paralympics finish on March 13.

The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks Feb 2021 12 Month Report Card

March 7, 2022 by

The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks February 2021 12 Month Report Card

Report Card Stocks PBR1000 PBR25 Investing Investor

The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks 12 Month Report Card for February, 2021, gets an ‘D’ for falling short of its forecast and the three major US stock indices.

By Larry C. Paxton

Welcome to The February 2021 The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks 12 Month Report Card.

As investors we count on professional stock analysts to provide comprehensive and diligent research to come up with their best take on how stocks will perform over the next 12 months. We then use that information to help us make stock buy, hold and sell decisions.

The PBR25 Premise

The premise of The PBR25 is that there is a high probability of success for investing in stocks when a large enough number professional stock analysts through their extensive research determine that a stock is a “Buy” and also forecasts a significant return over the next 12 months. PBRMarketTools assigns a Report Card grade based on how the professional stock analysts did.

Last 12 Months Influences

It is difficult to forecast a result with much accuracy over a 12 month period. For example, the 12 month period ended with the invasion of Ukraine by Russia starting February 24, 2022, which no one predicted 12 months earlier. The COVID-19 pandemic also continued with new variants causing havoc throughout the 12 months, but numbers were dropping significantly towards the end of February 2022, with the total US death toll approaching one million over the two plus years of the pandemic. The effects created a lot of unemployment, affected many economic sectors like hospitality and travel services, closed schools, forced people to work from home, and much more. But there has also been a significant recovery as societies continue to try to regain a sense of “normalcy.” Inflation rates skyrocketed, but were expected to be transitory. However, the high levels have continued, and the US Federal Reserve is expected to start increasing short term interest rates. There also continues to be the aftermath of a very contentious 2020 US Presidential and general election process, which also created a lot of confusion and strife, with the major action being the attack on the US Capital Building on January 6, 2021. 12 months later The US House of Representatives continues to actively pursue investigations and convictions of people involved as the 2022 midterm elections come into play.  There are a lot more factors, but this is not meant to be an opinions post. It is a piece focused on the review of the recommendations stock analysts came up with at the end of February 2021 and the actual results 12 months later at the end of February 2022. PBRMarketTools is calling this a Report Card.

For this February 2021 Report Card we used stock data and forecasts from February 26, 2021, and compare it to the actual results on February 28, 2022.

Creating The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks List for February 2021

The starting point is the prestigious The PBR1000 US Public Companies, produced monthly by PBRMarketTools. To be included in The PBR1000 the 1,000 companies must meet the following criteria:

  • The companies must be publicly traded on the NYSE, NYSE American or NASDAQ stock exchanges, with a very few temporarily trading on the Over-The-Counter market because they are transitioning from bankruptcy.
  • They must be headquartered in the US or have primary operations in the US.
  • They must have generated at least $1 billion in revenues in their most recent full fiscal year.
  • They must file an annual 10-K form with the US Securities and Exchange Commission in US dollars
  • Each of the 1,000 companies is given a primary ranking based on revenues, with the company having the highest revenue amount ranked 1(currently Walmart). There are 27 secondary rankings in The PBR1000 based on other criteria as well.

Conclusions, Observations, Validations and Realities

  • If you had bought 1 share each of The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks at the closing price on February 26, 2021, $6,664.50, you would have achieved a +3.22% gain 12 months later at the close on February 28, 2022, $6,879.28, significantly less than the +30.00% estimate of  $8,664.13, historically a less than average 12 month return, much below the 12 month forecast, and below the returns on the DJIA, NASDAQ, and S&P500 indices. For this reason The February 2021 The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks gets an ‘D’ on its 12 month Report Card, only because it did have a small positive return.
  • It is difficult to forecast out 12 months with any great accuracy, there are just too many variables and uncertainties.
  • However, it does demonstrate that The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks is a valid methodology and process for that particular month.
  • Our demonstration account, called The Charlie Fund, uses the popular “Dollar Cost Averaging Investment Strategy” with the monthly The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks as the primary research tool. For the 12 Month Report Card period it achieved a greater than 30% return, a further validation of the methodology.
  • There are no guarantees! The reality is that there will always be ups and downs in the stock market and people make stocks buy, hold and sell decisions based on a wide range of  logical and emotional criteria, input from knowledgeable hard-working experts and well meaning friends, and if the sky is blue today. But the historical data is pretty convincing that stocks will trend up at an above average investment rate over the long haul.

Additional Information

  • The details of this summary, including company names and the over 200 fields of information for each company, were extracted from the updated The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks MS-Excel worksheet for February 2022, and has been distributed to The PBR25 Top Buy Stocks Subscribers for their personal use and further research

The Week 9 of 2022 US Stock Market News Recap

The Week 9 of 2022 US Stock Market News Recap

Stock Market Bull Bear Stocks Investing Recap

The Stock Market Bear continues his domination, helped by Russia’s controversial attack on Ukraine, takes Week 9 of 2022 with a dominating 3-0 win.

By Larry C. Paxton

The US Stock Market Week 9 Summary:

The stock markets don’t like uncertainty. In a short time Russia’s attack on Ukraine has considerably elevated that over the longer time and ongoing “contributions” of the COVID-19 pandemic and economic inflationary concerns. The Stock Market Bear capitalized on that in Week 9 of 2022, getting a 2-1 mixed result on Monday. As the Russia-Ukraine news worsened he then took a big full 3-0 bite on Tuesday. The Stock Market Bull made a valiant effort on Wednesday, got the 3-0 result, but the news took another turn for the worst, allowing The Stock Market Bear to spill more blood on Thursday and Friday, and takes the 3-0 win in Week 9 in a dominating way.

Influences/News:

  • Citizens of the world continue to be shocked by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the inevitable brutalities of war, the courage and bravery of the Ukraine people as they fight back against incredible odds, and in the first week the over one million of mostly women and children desperately migrating to the borders of Poland, Slovakia, Hungary and Romania and beyond as refugees, with millions more expected in the coming weeks. The European Union, US, Far East democracies and other countries around the world continue to try to use increasing economic sanctions against Russia, Putin, and Russian oligarchs, while providing financial, military equipment, and moral support to Ukraine, but not willing to enter the war directly militarily because of the fear that Russia’s Putin’s will push his finger down on the button that would launch his nuclear weapons. The United Nations passes a resolution by an unusually large majority condemning Russia’s attack. Many large corporations around the world start withdrawing their companies and stop buying products from Russia. Oil prices reach near record highs as pressure increases for the world to shun Russia’s largest export commodity.
  • US President Biden gives his first State of the Union address, with a focus on the Russia-Ukraine situation, US and world efforts to thwart Russia, US economic issues, the effect and future of the COVID-19 pandemic, and asking for bipartisanship to pass his rebranded Building a Better America plan.
  • In US economic news Federal Reserve Board chair Jerome Powell expressed his willingness to fight inflation by raising federal short term funds interest rates a quarter of a percent. Jobs reports by ADP and the US Labor Department exceed forecasts, the unemployment rate drops to 3.8%. As mentioned before, oil prices spike to over $115/barrel forcing gas prices up as well. Factory orders are up more than expected, and mortgage rates take a dip to 3.76% on a 30 year fixed rate mortgage.
  • US President Biden’s Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson starts meeting with senators, hearings are scheduled to begin in a couple of weeks.
  • US Major League Baseball continues negotiating with the Players Union, the original scheduled opening day has been cancelled.
  • The 2022 Winter Paraolympics start in Beijing, China, complicated by controversies of the Russia invasion of Ukraine.

The Week 8 of 2022 US Stock Market News Recap

stock market bull bear stocks investing investor PBR1000

In a shortened Week 8 The Stock Market Bear claws out wins the first two days, The Stock Market Bull takes the last two days, and gets the Week 8 mixed 2-1 win.

By Larry C. Paxton

The US Stock Market Week 8 Summary:

Week 8 started with Monday a day off for the US stock exchanges to observe Presidents’ Day. But it was an anxious day as the world waited to see if Russia would invade Ukraine. On Tuesday and Wednesday The Stock Market Bear took charge by clawing his way to two very large losses days. Russia did attack Ukraine, sanctions were started against Russia, and The Stock Market Bull aggressively countered by taking charge on Thursday and Friday. At Friday’s close it was a split with The Stock Market Bull getting the 2-1 mixed win for the week and the first of 2022. Between the Russia-Ukraine concerns, inflation, and continuing COVID19 issues it was a fitting end to Week 8. Everyone is wondering, what will Week 9 bring?

Influences/News:

  • The Russia-Ukraine concerns became reality as Russia initially launched offenses to take over two breakaway Ukraine regions, then started closing in on the major city of Kyiv by the end of the week. NATO had an emergency session, agreed to beef up troops in neighboring countries. Speeches by US President Biden and many other world leaders from democracies denounced the use of military force, pledged to impose economic sanctions against Russia and its political and corporate leaders. Ukraine President Zelensky encouraged its military and citizens to provide resistance with some apparent initial success.
  • Inflation in the US continues to be a big issue. The Federal Open Market Committee meets next month some members are talking about a quarter or half percent increase in the federal short term interest rate.
  • COVID19 and associated variants cases and hospitalizations are decreasing rapidly, the US Center for Disease Control indicated that it is considering making some recommendations about the use of masks, probably to be oriented more towards communities that the nation itself.
  • US President Biden nominates Ketanji Brown Jackson, a federal judge on the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit since 2021, to replace retiring US Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer. She is the first black female to be nominated for the position.
  • In US economic news the Case-Shiller housing report indicated that in December home prices had increased by 18.6% over 12 months. The US Gross Domestic Product annual rate for 21Q4 was revised from +6.9% to +7.0%. US weekly initial jobless claims dropped 17,000 to 232,000 last week, closing in on pre-pandemic numbers. US mortgage rates dropped a little to an average of 3.89% with 0.8 points & fees in the last week. US personal incomes were little changed from the previous month.
