Q: Dear Team:
Not sure who the author of Rockets and Duds is/are.
What methodology do you use? Percentage of price increase is obvious. Do you look at Technical Analysis? (Momentum oscillators) Can one use that methodology to identify the rockets BEFORE they take off?! Any predictive variable?
The second part of the question, sticking to the same Rocket metaphor, once you identify the Rockets, can one benefit from the "After burn"! :) Till the module falls off!! Catch the momentum and ride it for a little while! LOL.
I wonder how your rockets have fared from the time you published them.
A cool home work for me!
Just for fun question.

5i Research Answer:
Typically, Peter Hodson puts together the R&D blog. It is meant as an amusing re-cap of weekly movers, similar to the Globe & Mail Stars & Dogs. It is a screen of $2B market cap (usually) and looks at percentage moves only. It is not really meant as a big idea-generator, but of course if a stock is going to soar it usually will show up in such lists early. But many of the moves have specific company reasons. We have not (yet) done a performance tracking analysis but it is a good idea.
