Bloomberg Indices Based on our Superior Research
The market is missing footnotes, and our research is the first and best at collecting footnotes data that delivers novel alpha – as proven by Core Earnings: New Data & Evidence, published in The Journal of Financial Economics.
We are very excited to partner with Bloomberg to bring more investors access to the proven novel alpha in our proprietary data and research.
Bloomberg New Constructs Ratings VA-1 Index ("The Very Attractive Stocks Index")
Is there a better way to prove the alpha in our research than a live, actively-traded index that outperforms the market?
That’s exactly what happened in the first quarter of 2025 when this index beat the S&P 500 by 9%.
The Bloomberg New Constructs Ratings VA-1 Index, aka the “Very Attractive Stocks Index”, tracks the stocks in the Bloomberg 1000 Index that get our Very Attractive Rating. In other words, it’s an index of nearly all our Very Attractive-Rated stocks.
Given the sizeable outperformance of our index, we think it is fair to say that there’s a lot of alpha in our Very Attractive-rated stocks.
