Zacks Research Wizard Questions

What is the back-tested performance and number of stocks returned (max, min, average) of the following portfolio screens?

  • 4-week rebalanced Zacks Rank=1
  • 1-week rebalanced Zacks Rank=1
  • 4-week rebalanced ZR=1 and ZR change (in last month) < 0
  • 1-week rebalanced ZR=1 and ZR change (in last month) < 0
  • 4-week rebalanced LP, PEG, U&R, and ROE screens combined with ZR=1 only and also each individually with ZR=1. (5 tests)
  • Screens without Zacks Rank
    • In the name of diversity, can we get similar results without using Zacks Rank by combining any of the Zacks Profit Track criteria?
