How To Pick The Best Companies For The Coming Rally In Penny Stocks
by Robert Morris
The financial industry has produced a number of truisms about the market
over the years. You’ve probably heard at one time or another such
famous sayings as:
“Buy low, sell high.”
“Buy the dips.”
“Buy on weakness – sell on strength.”
Market truisms are great because they’re generally true and easy to
remember. You can throw them out in casual conversations and watch
your audience nod their heads in agreement.
One truism getting a lot of press these days is about small company
stocks. It goes something like this.
Small company stocks perform better than large company stocks as the
economy comes out of a recession.
And, according to the Wall Street Journal, there is evidence to
back this up. In an article from last September, they wrote, “in
the 12-month periods following the end of the last nine recessions,
small stocks on average provided a 24% gain, compared with 17.6% for the
S&P 500.”
That’s a pretty strong argument for having some quality penny stocks in
your portfolio. You don’t want to miss out on the coming rally.
The problem is you can’t wait for proof the recession has ended before
buying.

Where Can You Turn $300 Into $1.3 Million Right Now?
Our own small-company specialist, Robert Morris, has found a
way to 'sniff out' tiny penny stocks on the verge of a major breakout. And
the timing for this has never been better.
You see, the system takes advantage of an obscure SEC regulation that
sends penny stock prices through the roof.
We've seen some stocks gain 852%... 5,450%... even 17,496% in no time
flat.

Economists will call an official end to the recession many months after
it has already happened. By that time it’ll be too late.
Penny stocks will have already made a major move upward.
The time is now to selectively add penny stocks to your portfolio.
As an added bonus, you can buy these stocks right now on the cheap.
Institutional investors have been selling small company stocks across
the board since last September. As measured by the Russell
2000 Index (RUT), small company stocks are down almost 38% in
the last twelve months.
Anytime you have indiscriminate selling like that the good companies get
sold off with the bad. As a result, many quality penny stocks are
trading at huge discounts to their true value.
The question is how do you find them?
Over the years, I’ve found the best performing penny stocks share three
important qualities. I look for these qualities when researching
companies for my monthly investment advisory, Penny Stock Breakouts. As a special favor to Brian, I’ve agreed to share these valuable secrets
with our loyal Dynamic Wealth Report readers.
The first thing I look for is revenue growth.
As many of you know, earnings power is an important factor driving a
company’s stock price. However, a company can’t grow its earnings
if it’s not growing revenue. Earnings growth with no accompanying
revenue growth is usually an accounting trick (steer clear of these
stocks).
I’m looking for companies that consistently grow their revenue faster
than the average for their industry. I’ll look at their revenue
growth quarter over quarter and year over year. Then I’ll compare
these figures to the industry growth rate. The companies growing
their revenue faster than the industry average are most likely growing
their earnings faster than average as well.
The next thing I look for is earnings growth.
Earnings are important because they are the best measure of a company’s
worth. Companies that make money consistently will see their stock
values rise over time.
But, I’m not interested in companies reporting the same old earnings
every year. I want to find companies growing their earnings at a
rapid pace. These stocks make bigger moves in shorter periods of
time.
The last thing I do is determine which of these fast growing companies
is misvalued by the market. Even though they have high growth
rates, you don’t want to overpay for this growth. A simple yet
effective way to do this is to look at their PEG ratios.
The PEG ratio is calculated by dividing the company’s Price to Earnings
(P/E) ratio by its annual EPS growth rate. A PEG of 1.0 means the
stock price fully reflects the company’s earnings potential. A PEG
lower than 1.0 means the stock is misvalued by the market.
For example, let’s assume you’ve found a stock with a P/E of 10 and an
earnings growth rate of 20%. The PEG ratio would be 10/20 or 0.5.
The PEG is less than 1.0 so the stock is misvalued compared to its
growth potential.
On the other hand, let’s say you find a stock with a P/E of 20 and a
growth rate of 10%. The PEG ratio would be 20/10 or 2.0.
This stock is trading for 2x its growth rate and is overvalued.
In the long run, you’ll get higher returns by investing in stocks with
lower PEG ratios. Stocks with higher PEG ratios will usually fall
to a price that more accurately reflects the company’s earnings growth
potential.
As I said before, I’ve used these three simple rules with great success.
They’re an important part of my selection strategy for Penny Stock
Breakouts. In fact, using these exact rules, I’ve found
stocks that have doubled and tripled since last September (when the
market started getting really bad).
Bottom line, you should make these rules a part of your stock picking
strategy. Use them now to find the next big winners in the coming
rally for small company stocks. You won’t be sorry you did.
• Mobile Telecommunications (Up 7.95%)
Over the last 30 days, the best performing industry is Mobile
Telecommunications. Earnings reports from AT&T (T) and
Verizon (VZ) indicate demand for mobile telecom
services has not weakened as badly as many analysts had expected.
