Poor quality companies usually go up the most during a bull market and the best quality companies fall the least during a bear market.
Our case study of 9 stocks across 3 sectors suggests that this is indeed true.
The worst quality stocks did the best during the current bull market that started back in March 2020.
Likewise, the best quality stocks have fallen the least in the recent correction.
Does this mean that we should switch between worst quality and best quality stocks depending on where we are in the cycle to achieve the best results?
Or is there more to this case study than these simple yet factually correct conclusions?
Check out the video to know the answer.
Rahul Shah (Research Analyst), Managing Editor, Microcap Millionaires has led the team from the front in developing some of our most stringent and rewarding research processes. As per his own admission, the turning point in Rahul's life as a financial analyst came a few years back when he got introduced to the works of Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger. From Buffett, he understood the value of investing in good quality business with powerful moats and strong management teams. Charlie Munger on the other hand inspired him to be a lifelong learner and use mental models in order to arrive at the crux of matters across most disciplines. Rahul firmly believes that in order to be successful at investing, you have to do the big things right and possess a great temperament and a contrarian streak.
