The markets recorded their first down week in several months. Friday was ugly and a little scary to see how far and fast some stocks could fall. For example, one of the stocks in July’s Most Dangerous Stocks Model Portfolio was down over 17% just this week. This kind of market performance is a reminder of how much risk exists if the news is not just right. Seeing a significantly weaker-than-expected jobs report and new tariffs on dozens of countries is not good news.

Bad news doesn’t necessarily presage a sharp market correction, but capital is likely to flow more judiciously, by favoring fundamentally strong companies while pulling back from weaker, less resilient names. That’s exactly what we see in the strong outperformance of the Core Earnings Leaders Index vs the S&P 500.

In an environment where capital is earned rather than given, understanding the underlying strength of businesses is essential, and we are all for it. We provide investors with the most transparent and highest quality fundamental research.

Earnings Watch Parties are back! These watch parties detail what earnings reports really say about companies and the current trends in the market. The first watch party covered TSLA, GOOG, KO, V, LMT, INTC, and more. We failed to record the second watch party on Friday; so there’s no replay to share.

Two FREE Stock Picks: one free stock pick from our Exec Comp Aligned with ROIC Model Portfolio and one free stock pick from the Bloomberg New Constructs 500 Index.

Our latest Long Idea is an industry leader, benefits from AI tailwinds, has strong fundamentals, and its stock looks undervalued.

On the other hand, our latest Danger Zone features a company that is burning through cash, taking on more debt, not generating any profits since going public, and its stock price is very expensive.

We enhanced our Portfolio Alerts for all users! The updates are live, and members will get the new and enhanced Portfolio Alerts going forward.

On the Model Portfolio front, we updated our Dividend Growth Stocks Model Portfolio.

We highlighted The Fundamentals of Fundamentals by Tim Baker, which details what separates good fundamental data from the bad. This report is more third-party proof that New Constructs provides the best type of fundamental data.

We highlighted the Bloomberg New Constructs Core Earnings Leaders Index (ticker: BCORET:IND). The index’s outperformance over both the long- and short-term highlights the superiority of our Core Earnings metric.

Last but not least, we continued our quarterly ETF and mutual fund series with four reports showing how to find the best ETFs and Mutual Funds for both sector and style.

Links to all our newly published research are below along with a preview for next week’s research.

We hope you had a great week!
