While poking around Motley Fool I noted: Costco was picked up by their Low Price/Sales Ratio screening today: fool.com Their help explains the screening method: "Low Price/Sales: Starting with all of the stocks ranked 1 for Timeliness in the Value Line Investment Survey, reduce the field to those stocks which have Price/Sales ratios of less than 1.5. Then further reduce the field by including only those stocks with positive 12-month EPS growth. From the remaining stocks, select the ten (or five) with the highest returns over the previous 26 weeks. This specific model has not been tested, but it's a derivation of Jim O'Shaughnessy's very successful Cornerstone Growth approach."
