I imagine intc would fare very well in this model then? I guess it's not so much her methods that I find flawed, but the way people interpret her results. I think a quantitative analysis model should be just one of the many perspectives one uses in playing the market -- whereas so many people (not professionals, one hopes) have the mentality of "eg's formula is coming up negative, so i'm going to sell everything i own!" any model that tries to predict the market as a whole, even if it successful at doing so, does not hold so much relevance for individual stocks. Unless you are a speculator who is investing in market perturbations rather than investing in the companies behind the symbols, or unless you are going to need your money very soon, those "corrections" mean very little, I think.
