At TopStockPortfolios.com, we focus our attention on the "TopStocks" of the market for a few simple reasons. The TopStocks have the best earnings strength. The TopStocks have strong fundamentals. The TopStocks are also in the top ranked industry groups. So from our perspective, the TopStocks put the odds in your favor before you ever enter a buy order. So, why would anyone invest in anything else?

Each week the computers scour our universe of the most liquid stocks traded in the United States for the TopStocks (the stocks with the top ratings in the top industry groups). But for this report, we are looking only for absolute "the best of the best" -- those stocks rated 10.0 out of a possible 10.0.

Listed below are a few of the "10.0 Stocks" our team feels are worthy of attention for this week.

TopStock Rating:

Sector Rankng:
The Sector Rank measures each market sector in terms of relative performance and industry specific indicators. The rating scale is 1 - 10 with 1 being the highest rank.
 
TSP Rating:
TSP Rating is designed to let readers know what we would do now if we did NOT currently hold the position.
  • Buy: We would be willing to buy a full position at current levels.
  • Accumulate: We would be willing to take a "starter position" (25% - 33% of the full position) at current levels. However, we would not want to buy a full position at the current time and we would look to add to our "starter position" on weakness.
  • Hold: We prefer to hold our position at the current levels - but we would not be buyers at this time.
  • Sell: We are not happy with this position and are looking for an exit point.

Do Ratings Really Matter?
