One Stock to Buy Next Monday Morning (ad) A couple of years ago, we started playing with the massive amounts of data that MarketBeat takes in everyday trying to figure out if there was a way to identify short-term trading wins. By analyzing earnings data, news sentiment, analyst recommendations, insider transactions and dozens of other data points, we think we've found an algorithm that finds winning short-term stock ideas. We call that algorithm the IdeaEngine and its stock ideas are published on MarketBeat All Access every Monday morning. We make one IdeaEngine idea available free every Monday as an SMS alert. We'll be releasing the first IdeaEngine alert on Monday morning, so make sure you are signed up before then.
