Not Your Average Top 10 Stocks List

	Zacks Top 10 Stocks for 2024 Release January 2 Zacks Member, Yesterday I told you how to best position your portfolio for outperformance in 2024. And today I simply want to remind you that Zacks Top 10 Stocks have consistently outperformed the market. Since 2012, our Top 10 portfolios have nearly TRIPLED the market. While the S&P 500 gained +340.1%, Zacks Top 10 Stocks skyrocketed +974.1%.¹ How is this market-beating performance achieved? The Zacks stock universe of more than 4,000 stocks is shrunk down to the 10 best that I've handpicked to buy and hold for the year. To find these powerful long-term picks, I use a rigorous 5-step process: 1. Start with the Zacks Rank and primarily focus on stocks with a #1 (Strong Buy) or #2 (Buy) rating. Since 1988, this stock-rating system has more than doubled the S&P 500 with an average gain of +24.0% per year. 2. Look at the Zacks Industry Rank with its 2-to-1 performance advantage. Weak industries that tend to drag down stock prices of good companies are weeded out. 3. Dig into financials to uncover undervalued stocks. Study after study proves that stocks with low valuations will outperform the market in the long run. 4. Insist on rock-solid fundamentals. I consider the fiscal health of the company, with a particular emphasis on how effectively it is managed. 5. This portfolio is a practical execution of my outlook for the year. As always, that outlook reflects a meticulous assessment of economic and market fundamentals that take into account a variety of scenarios. Overall, these 10 picks are strong, successful businesses, not just companies with potential.
