Don't settle for ordinary quarterly reports.
I take a look at three companies that beat market expectations every week, since I believe that it's the biggest factor in a stock beating the market. Leaving Wall Street's pros with stunned expressions can be a good thing. It usually means that the companies have more in the tank than analysts figured. Capital appreciation typically follows.
Let's take a look at a few companies that humbled the prognosticators over the past few trading days.
We can start with Bed Bath & Beyond
Bed Bath & Beyond is also forecasting 10%-15% in earnings-per-share growth for the year ahead, more than investors were expecting. It's apparently a good time to specialize in soft goods, with Pier 1 Imports
Immucor
Finally, we have MSC Industrial Direct
It's important to keep watching the companies that surpass expectations. Over time, it will be a lucrative experience for investors as the market rewards the overachievers. That's the kind of surprise that we look for in the Rule Breakers newsletter service. Want in? Check out a 30-day trial subscription.
