StockScouter beats the market

At MSN Money, we think our StockScouter rating system is about as good as it gets for those who are trying to decide where to invest. Scouter rates stocks on a scale of 1 to 10. Since it was launched on Aug. 1, 2001, a benchmark portfolio of Scouter's picks has generated a total return that's walloped the Standard & Poor's 500 Index ($INX) for the same period.



StockScouter looks for stocks whose business fundamentals, price behavior, valuation and stock-ownership characteristics appear to predict a rising price, based on how those factors have influenced stock prices in the past. The system assigns each stock an expected six-month return and balances that return. msnmoney.com
