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 has over 20 years of experience in financial markets as an analyst and editor. Rahul first joined Equitymaster as a Research Analyst, fresh out of university in 2003 but left shortly after to pursue his dream job with a Swiss investment bank. However, he quickly became disillusioned working for the 'financial establishment'. He learned first-hand the greedy stereotype of an investment banker is true and became uncomfortable working for a company that put profit above everything else. In 2006, Rahul re-joined Equitymas ter to serve honest, hardworking Indians like his father, who want to take control of their financial future - and not leave it in the hands of greedy money managers. Following the investment principles of Benjamin Graham (the bestselling author of The Intelligent Investor) and Warren Buffet (considered the world's greatest living investor), Rahul has recommended some of the biggest winners in Equitymaster's history.
