The AAII PUGET SOUND Chapter presents...
Stock Selection for Value and Growth Portfolios
Discussed by:
Wayne A. Thorp CFA
Vice President and Senior Financial Analyst, AAII
Even though successful money managers may differ in their investing philosophies, a disciplined approach to selecting and pruning investments is a common characteristic. Wayne Thorp, CFA, will show how computerized stock screening systems can be used to reduce a large universe of stocks into a manageable group of prospects that match your investment style. He will describe the process of developing and implementing both a value and a growth screen, using AAII’s Stock Investor Pro fundamental stock screening and research database program. After narrowing down the stock universe to a more manageable set of companies, Thorp will discuss “What next"? Using real-world examples and some of today’s most useful financial websites, Thorp will show you how to perform a step-by-step analysis of a company to decide whether it’s right for your portfolio.
