For a small cap company selling under $10.00 per share to become a medium or large cap company, in my opinion, several guiding principles must apply. I am listing some guidelines that have served me well. (1) Must be listed on the NYSE, ASE, or NASDAQ stock exchanges, (no BB stocks). (2) The stock must have revenue going up the last two years. (3) The last four quarters must show the E.P.S. in an uptrend. (4)The profit margin must be maintained quarter-to-quarter in an upward bias. (5)Current assets must be greater than liabilities; prefer 2-1 ratio or better. (6) More insiders buying than selling in the last 18 months. The above guidelines tend to give a stock consistency and stability.
These stocks are for the long term hold of 6-24 months. These stock selections are only my opinion based on my own research. Always do your own research before investing your own funds. I do own some of these stock picks.
This list is short because it is difficult to find quality stocks under $10.00.
