The FOCUS of this thread is on the simple, easy to use stock picking system called C-A-N-S-L-I-M. This system is described in William J. O'Neil's book, How to Make Money in Stocks. Each of the seven letters in C-A-N-S-L-I-M stands for one of the seven factors common to past winners.
C = Current Quarterly Earnings Per Share: How Much is Enough?
A = Annual Earnings Increases: Look for Meaningful Growth.
N = New Products, Management or Highs: Buying at the Right Time
S = Supply and Demand: Small Capitalization Plus Volume Demand.
L = Leader or Laggard: Which is Your Stock?
I = Institutional Sponsorship: A Little Goes a Long Way.
M = Market Direction: How to Determine It?
