MISSION
STATEMENT
As of October 30, 2011, the
12-month gain of
ACE'S
picks was 22.38% (vs. the S&P 500's gain of -1.79%). In ACE'S June 2008 study ("Spiritedly
Promising! A 48-Month Outlook for ACE'S Stocks"),
ACE'S
have shown that the 48-month performance of
ACE'S
picks were significantly superior to the 12-month picks. The average 48-month
gains of
ACE'S
stocks was 218.06% and the S&P 500's was 18.78% (or, annualized, 54.52%/yr. and
4.70%/yr., respectively).
STOCK SELECTION PHILOSOPHY
ACE'S believes that the spark that actuates a stock's price
growth is the effectiveness and creativity of the company's management. Given
that, the company will more than likely have a healthy revenue stream from the
successful performance of its products and/or services in the marketplace;
a healthy earnings stream that covers-and-exceeds corporate expenses; and
general financial health to provide dividends to its stockholders.
From this mix of core ingredients,
ACE'S then distills the stock's timeliness, safety, relative
value and price behavior. What emerges at the end of this
process is a number of stocks each of which has a set of values which, taken
together, determines whether a stock makes the grade or not. Those that makes
the grade becomes ACE'S picks.
ACE'S picks are the results of a very rigorous, unbiased and
detached process. Our monthly output of picks is an indication of this rigor: ACE'S
had averaged just 2.8 picks a month. In some months (i.e., April 2009 and October
2011), we were only able to come up with 1 pick. In some months (e.g.,
October and November 2008), no stock made the grade.
In ACE'S 06/09/08 study ("Spiritedly Promising! A 48-Month Outlook for ACE'S Stocks"), ACE'S have shown that the 48-month performance of ACE'S picks were significantly superior to the 12-month picks. The average 48-month gains of ACE'S stocks was 218.06% and the S&P 500's was 18.78% (or, annualized, 54.52%/yr. and 4.70%/yr., respectively). Compare to the12-month gain of ACE'S picks (i.e., 37.44% as of 07/31/08) and the S&P 500's (i.e., -1.12% as of 07/31/08). This suggests that, based on the time period studied, significantly higher gains are possible when ACE'S stocks are held longer than 12 months. |

ACE'S (short for ACE’S STOCKS ACES) has developed a body of
knowledge and techniques -- through years of dogged research and development -- that has enabled
The long term price growth of a stock is primarily based on its core strengths:
effective management; reasonable price-earnings multiple; and healthy revenue,
earnings, dividend and price growth.
Finding an ACE'S pick is a discovery process. At the
beginning of each week, we start with a "basket" of stocks. It is not known at
that time which of the week's harvest of stocks will emerge as a pick. The harvest
of stocks are
subjected to an evaluation process. Most are rejected; a few are singled out; and from
this last select group, one or two "unknowns" emerges as the week's
pick. It is a challenging ... and exciting process.
