Top 200 List - April 29th 2011

Top 200 List - April 29th

Time for another top 200 list. As a reminder, I calculate the earnings yield and return on capital for a universe of about 3000 stocks, which I then rank and add together... essentially the same method as in TLBTBTM by JG.

My list actually shows the values and ranks the various stocks, as opposed to the "official" site. I also show the dividend yields... note these are direct pulls from Yahoo, so I'd advise double checking any of them if you are going to use.

Comparison With Official List

A good sanity check is to look at the official top 50 over 50m list and see where each of their stocks show up on my list. I like to see them in the top 75ish. I do have additional stocks in my list, not sure why. I have had BPI and ESI for many months and they were not on official list. But I did see this week ESI suddenly showed up, so with their most recent earnings, whatever kept them off the list is fixed. Also, I do have quite a few foreign stocks, such as MAIL, AZN and XNY that are not on "the" list.

The three that stand out are DLX, FLL and EME. FLL is 108 and I do not understand why we differ. DLX looks like a simple timing difference (I show the most recent quarter not fully populated) and EME may be timing as well (note my data is as of Saturday and the website is Friday morning, which means stock prices are different and as we're in the middle of earnings season, income statements could differ).

Mechanical Update

Every weekend, I try to look at stocks that are new to the top 30 or top 50 lists (over 50m) in the past 52 weeks. The lists have been very stagnant... until this week!

New to top 30: CPLA, ESI and LMLP.
New to top 50: ESI, LMLP and AVEO.

LMLP looks interesting. They are a bit like TSRA and IDCC in they seem to try to collect $ based on Intellectual Property. But here, tit seems more like ip associated with bill pay and check pay through the internet. I'll wait for someone smarter than me to look them over and kick the tires.

AVEO is one of many biotech firms to make the list. They seem (anecdotally) to have performed pretty well. I probably need to roll up my sleeves and see if they have been better or worse than average.
