FAQs Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Being a new subscriber and an O'Neil follower I wonder why some of your suggestions our not in the top two in their group of the 197. Mr. O'Neil also likes earnings of 80 or better or more while a stock (for illustration purposes only) BZUN is rated number 8 in its group and has an eps of 79. Also in your books you refer to the big stock idea which Mr. O'Neil likes too, but some of your suggestion seem small in market cap and lower in price to me. Is it the kind of market we are in?

A: We go beyond CAN SLIM, which is largely useless these days. The true drivers of stocks these days has shifted, and our work remains on the cutting edge of the OWL (O'Neil-Wycoff-Livermore) methodology that we practice. So trying to understand our stock selection based on a strict CAN SLIM interpretation is not sufficient.
