As the title suggests this book is all about discovering tomorrow's top performing stocks . . . today Tomorrow's top performing stocks are typically companies that have developed products or services that are game changers - or involve disruptive technologies. What differentiates this book from other books that attempt to identify companies with game changing products or services is that readers who successfully implement the procedures outlined in this book don't have to wait months or years for the universe of investors to discover these companies. The reason readers will not have to wait months or years is that they will be able identify stocks that are in the early stages of being discovered by a growing number of investors and are on the verge of developing strong upward trends - stocks that have the potential to double, triple - or more - in stock market value. The only way a stock can become a best performing stock - next week, next month or next year - is if its market value develops an upward trend. The metric used in this book to identify these exciting wealth-building stocks with upward trends involves an analysis of unusual volume anomalies - anomalies that typically portend the emergence of upward trends. Our Unusual Volume Metrics depict the ultimate vote of a growing number of investors - the escalating flow of money into specific stocks. The definitive research for determining if a trend following investing strategy works with stocks was conducted by Eric Crittenden and Cole Wilcox of BlackStar Funds. Their conclusions are summarized below: "What we found doing this trend following research in equities is an amazing statistic. The best 5% performing stocks, in any given year, are responsible for a large portion of market gain. If each year, for the last 20 years, an investor missed the top 5% performing stocks and instead owned the other 95% of the market, he or she would have lost money as an investor. Similarly, if you randomly bought a stock and held it over the last 20 years, there is a one in five chance that the investment would have lost 100% of its equity value. We observed that nearly 20% of all stocks that went public eventually lost all their value for shareholders. So we have 5% of stocks that are really moving the needle each year and an extraordinarily large number of stocks that are doomed investments. These extreme performers are there, each and every year, and they have a phenomenal impact on the market." Among savvy institutional investment management firms and hedge funds, those 5% of stocks that are "moving the needle" are known as Alpha stocks - stocks that offer investors the potential to achieve investment returns that are significantly higher than the performance of the overall market.
