I've been using a version of O'S method for most of my stock screening for awhile now. It's identified a lot of winners for me. And I like WWonWS better. Thanks, Steven. I'll have to check out WWonWS. If you don't mind, could you elaborate a bit? Specifically, what screen parameters do you use? E.g., does adding a maximum debt-to-equity screen parameter help eliminate losers? Alternatively, do you cherry-pick stocks identified by the screens based on other factors, either qualitative or quantitative? I'd like to devote about $20K in my IRA to a 25-stock O'Shaugnessy-esque strategy, but before I do it, I want to decide on a strategy and stick with it for 5 years or so. (I'm also investing in an S&P500 index and some international/sector funds, both managed and index.) Mostly I want to be satisfied that I've chosen the right strategy at the start so I won't get the urge to tinker with it later on. Thanks. Joel Irby Austin, Texas
