This Model Portfolio includes stocks that earn an Attractive or Very Attractive rating and align executive compensation with improving ROIC.
We know that Very Attractive rated stocks outperform. The Very Attractive Stocks Index, managed by Bloomberg, tracks the stocks that get our Very Attractive rating and beat the S&P 500 by 37% over the past five years through February 13, 2026. And, year-to-date, this index is up 2.93% versus the S&P up just 0.24%.
The combination of criteria for this Model Portfolio, Attractive-or-better stock rating and quality executive compensation incentives, provides a unique list of quality stocks given that return on invested capital (ROIC) is the primary driver of shareholder value creation.
Although you can’t trade the Very Attractive Stocks Index, you can get access to all of our Very Attractive-rated stocks and our Exec Comp Aligned with ROIC Model Portfolio via subscriptions here and here.
