The best bear stock pickers 2007-01-13
By SumOfSome | January 12, 2008
Similar to the best bull stock pickers, I have created a scoring for the best bear stock pickers. To define the bear period, I assumed the S&P grows at 10% annually. Using this assumption, if the S&P rose by less than 10%/26 in a 2 week period, 10%/5.2 in a 10 week period, 10%/2 in a 26 week period, or 10%/1 in a 52 week period, I considered that a bear period. I then collected all data which fit into this bear period and used the same formula as I used for the Lifetime Performance score to create a Bear Performance score, with this as the result
| Screen - Analyst | Score |
|---|---|
| ClearStation ClearPick | 41 |
| The Street - All Around | 20 |
| The Street - Fast Growth | 18 |
| Future Blue Chips | 14 |
| MarketWatch Most | 13 |
| Jubak Journal | 12 |
| Screen of Screens | 10 |
| MSN Stock Scouter | 9 |
| Fool - CAPS Rated | 3 |
| CNN Sivy 70 | 0 |
| Briefing Active Portfolio | 0 |
| Fool - CAPS Leader | 0 |
| Peter Lynch Mimic | 0 |
| Warren Buffett Mimic | -5 |
| Martin Zweig Mimic | -7 |
| ClearStation Community | -17 |
I will provide the full data which derives these scores, as well as consolidated scoring comparing Bull Scores, Bear Scores, and Lifetime Scores soon.
