DexCom (DXCM) – a developer and seller of continuous glucose monitoring systems – hit a 6-day winning streak, with cumulative gains over this period amounting to 25%. The company’s market cap has surged by about $5.5 Bil over the last 6 days and currently stands at $28 Bil.

Is this an opportunity or a trap? There is not much to fear in DXCM stock given its overall Strong operating performance and financial condition. This is aligned with the stock’s High valuation because of which we think it is Fairly Priced (For details, see Buy or Sell DXCM).

But here is the interesting part. You are reading about this 25% move after it happened. The market has already priced in the news. To catch the next winner before the headlines, you need predictive signals, not notifications. High Quality Portfolio is based on an architecture that includes such signals.

While DXCM stock looks attractive given its winning streak, investing in a single stock without detailed, thorough analysis can be risky. The Trefis High Quality (HQ) Portfolio, with a collection of 30 stocks, has a track record of comfortably outperforming its benchmark that includes all 3 — the S&P 500, S&P mid-cap, and Russell 2000 indices. Why is that? As a group, HQ Portfolio stocks provided better returns with less risk versus the benchmark index; less of a roller-coaster ride, as evident in HQ Portfolio performance metrics.
