[1] What Is The Purpose Of Counterintuitive Comparisons?

The purpose is to identify, with more conviction, that one stock may be a better investment over the other given the disconnect between its market valuation and financial performance. Exciting investment opportunities sometimes lie in plain sight across industries, sectors, and categories of stocks (large-caps, mid-caps, small-caps). Comparisons offer a systematic way of unearthing these opportunities by identifying such pricing discontinuities.

[2] How Do You Find These Counterintuitive Pairs?

We understand that the counterintuitive aspect is dynamic, based on how market prices change. Therefore, our engine scans NYSE/NASDAQ universe at the beginning of each week to uncover such pairs. Pairs uncovered last week may or may not be valid counterintuitive pairs depending on the movement of their stock since then.

[RK - HIDDEN][3] If I Were To Decide Based On Counterintuitive Comparisons, How Likely Is It That I Will Make The Right Pick?

Counterintuitive comparisons work in a probabilistic manner. Picking a stock with a lower market valuation but better financial performance increases the odds of realizing better market returns but does not guarantee it. For the realization of better returns, it is imperative that the stock's growth and margin performance continues to exceed that of the other for the market to get enough time to recognize this consistent outperformance.

As a reference, we have backtested such picks, and below are the results.

Selection criteria: Lower P/EBIT but better operational performance

[3] Where Can I See More Such Counterintuitive Comparisons?

You can see all counterintuitive comparisons here. However, the older published comparisons may no longer be valid due to market price movement as a key ingredient of choosing such pairs is their market multiple.

[4] I Don't Want To Go Through Multiple Comparisons, Can You Simplify The Investment Decision For Me?

Consider looking at our High Quality Portfolio which has outperformed its benchmark - a combination of S&P 500, Russell, and S&P midcap index and is periodically rebalanced based on our quality filters that go beyond the criteria we use for finding 'counterintuitive pairs'. We do not currently offer our high-quality portfolio as a mutual fund or an ETF. However, we do expect to make opportunities to invest in the portfolio available in the near future.
