ValuEngine Performance
ValuEngine Ratings vs S&P500
2004 – 2025 (End of Sept)
Disclosures/methodology:
- These are the results from a backtest, not actual traded performance. Performance is calculated by treating all stocks in each grouping (buy,hold, sell) as a portfolio and adjusting monthly.
- Most current trading platforms offer trading at no cost to investors. If you do pay trading costs, this would REDUCE the performance slightly.
- These numbers do not include dividends. Stocks that pay dividends are included in the ValuEngine coverage, so this would INCREASE the performance slightly.
- If you pay a management firm such as ValuEngine Capital Management, LLC to trade ValuEngine for you, this would DECREASE the performance slightly.
ValuEngine Rating System
Engine Ratings: ValuEngine’s proprietary Engine Rating system provides an overall assessment of a stock’s attractiveness. ValuEngine’s stock recommendations are based on the proprietary ValuEngine one-year forecast return (1YFR) model output for each individual equity. A stock is rated Strong Buy, Buy, Hold, Sell, Strong Sell based on the Forecast One Year Return. Our 5-Engine scale provides an easy to understand and actionable format. The breakdown for each rating is as follows:
5 Strong Buy: More than +12% Forecasted Return for the next year
4 Buy: Between +5% and +12% Forecasted Return for the next year
3 Hold: Between -5% and +5% Forecasted Return for the next year
2 Sell: Between -12% and -5% Forecasted Return for the next year
1 Strong Sell: Less than -12% Forecasted Return for the next year
All stocks trading under $5 cannot qualify for Strong Buy (5) Rating. Due to the volatility and risk of most stocks trading under $5, they are limited to a maximum rating of Buy (4).
There is an additional buffer for stock upgrades or stock downgrades to eliminate stocks moving back and forth quickly between ratings. The information above and below demonstrate how well the Engine Rating system and various ValuEngine benchmark portfolio strategies perform. This all indicates that the rating system is predictive, and the tracked portfolio strategies beat their benchmark indices.
