Quality Investing Universe
Investing is an art.
But it’s also a craft and a science at the same time.
Let’s show you a great Quality Investing Universe today.
Screen for Quality
The beautiful thing? I keep learning about Quality Investing every single day.
Quality Investing can be summarized as investing in the best companies in the world.
You can use three easy steps:
Buy wonderful companies
Led by excellent managers
Trading at fair valuation levels
Finchat does an excellent job of providing us with the data needed to find & analyze quality companies.
Let’s use the following criteria to screen for some ideas:
Net Debt/EBITDA < 2
Net Profit Margin > 10%
5-year average ROIC > 20%
Historical 5-year revenue CAGR > 10%
Historical 5-year EPS CAGR > 12%
Expected EPS growth next 2 years (CAGR) > 12%
The following companies match these criteria:
A lot of great companies match these criteria.
Think about Microsoft, Mastercard, Adobe, Fortinet, Veeva Systems, Deckers Outdoor, and many more.
