Here’s the good news. As a DIY investor, there are plenty of high-quality tools that can help you locate high-quality stocks, including analyst ratings, and stock research tools like our own market-beating Zen Ratings system. In this article, we’ll share 7 tips to help you figure out what stocks are best to buy right now. 

Research Every Potential Investment Idea

Never invest without doing a little research first. Our Zen Ratings system simplifies the process. This is our proprietary system of identifying potentially market-beating stocks, and it's available on the page of each ticker on WallStreetZen.

Zen Ratings evaluates 115 factors that drive stock growth, and distills them into an easily digestible letter grade for each stock. Not only can you see a stock's overall grade, but you can see how it scores in a variety of different areas, such as Value, Financials, Safety, and more.

Stocks with an A rating (Strong Buy) have produced an average annual return of +32.52% since 2003 — so it's definitely something to check out before you buy a stock. Currently, all of the stocks on our Best "A" Zen-Rated Stocks to Buy Today have an A Rating, so it's a great starting point to locate the top stocks to buy now.

However, you're not limited to the stocks on this list. you have a specific ticker in mind, you can also enter the stock symbol in the site's search box to see the overall Zen Rating. 7 Component Grades can help you further refine your research. Individual letter grades for Financials, Growth, Momentum, Value, Sentiment, Safety, and our proprietary Artificial Intelligence factor can help you identify particular areas of strength or weakness in a given stock.

Check the Fundamentals

Investing in high quality companies with solid fundamentals is crucial for building wealth over time. These companies are recognized for their reliable risk-adjusted returns, contrasting with the pitfalls of targeting stocks solely for short-term gains.

Here are some common characteristics of the best stocks to buy today (and any day):

  • Revenue & Earnings Growth: Look for companies with strong sales and profit growth.
  • Profit Margins: High margins suggest a competitive advantage. High margins often indicate a wide economic moat, which provides a competitive advantage.
  • Debt Levels: A low debt-to-equity ratio is preferable.
  • Valuation Metrics: Looking at valuation metrics like the P/E ratio, PEG ratio, and price-to-sales and price-to-book ratios can help you determine whether or not you’re getting a fair price for the stock.

Assessing fundamentals can be tedious work, but tools like the Zen Ratings system can make the process easier by evaluating 115 factors proven to drive stock growth. Many of those factors are connected to a company’s fundamentals, such as 26 Financial factors, 21 Value Factors, and 6 Safety factors.

Use Technical Analysis

If you’re technically inclined, looking at chart patterns and indicators can help you identify high-quality stocks. Common technical indicators include:

  • Trend Lines: Stocks in an uptrend (higher highs, higher lows) tend to keep rising.
  • Moving Averages: Check the 50-day and 200-day moving averages.
  • RSI & MACD: Use these indicators to spot overbought/oversold conditions.

The Zen Ratings Component Grade for Momentum can help you get a quick read of a company's technicals by looking at factors such as volume-weighted momentum and price standard deviation.

Look for Catalysts

This might seem obvious, but a positive catalyst can help a stock build momentum and drive up the stock price. A few examples:

  • Earnings reports: Be sure to watch out for upcoming earnings dates.
  • News and innovations: Look for companies launching new products or entering new markets.
  • Economic and policy shifts: Interest rates, regulations, or stimulus packages can impact stocks.

If you're interested in connecting the dots between catalysts like these and overall sentiment, then the next tip will definitely be of interest...

Follow the Smart Money 

Sentiment can be a powerful force behind stock growth. By watching things like insider buying and selling activity, and watching what top-rated analysts are saying about a stock (often following a catalyst), you can get an idea of what market professionals and institutional investors think of a stock. Wall Street analysts' expectations can influence stock performance.

The Zen Ratings Sentiment rating can help you get a handle on what smart money thinks of a stock. As one of the seven Component Grades that play into the overall Zen Rating, it distills factors like earnings surprises, short interest, upward and downward earnings revisions, insider action, and changes in analyst recommendations, into an easy-to-read letter grade. The historical performance of the Motley Fool Stock Advisor has also had a significant impact on stock recommendations.

Additionally, with WallStreetZen Premium, you gain access to top-rated analyst ratings. With WSZ's Strong Buys from Top Analysts feature, you can zero in on ratings from ONLY top-rated analysts, and you have easy access to their track record and average win rate.
