Sadly, there's no such thing as
an ultimate buy signalwhen it comes to investing in
stocks. Identifying companies with the wind at their back
takes time, patience, and a good dose of due diligence.
There is, however, an easy way to increase your odds of
finding the stocks that will beat the market. At
Motley Fool CAPS, the Fool's investing community of more
than 140,000 members, we've found that our "five-star
portfolio" is up 15.31% between January 2007 and April 2009,
compared to a loss of 40.6% for the S&P 500.
In order to fully capture the upside potential of those
five-star stocks, it makes sense to identify them just as
soon as they achieve five-star status. Fortunately, our CAPS
screenernow makes it possible to do this. Below, for
example, is a list of companies that have been upgraded to
five-star status from four stars just yesterday. These stock
ideas are only a starting point, of course. Be sure to join
