It doesn’t matter your age or experience: taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals for all investors.
While you may have an investing style you rely on, finding great stocks is made easier with the Zacks Style Scores. These are complementary indicators that rate stocks based on value, growth, and/or momentum characteristics.
Different than value or growth investors, momentum-oriented investors live by the saying “the trend is your friend.” This investing style is all about taking advantage of upward or downward trends in a stock’s price or earnings outlook. Employing factors like one-week price change and the monthly percentage change in earnings estimates, the Momentum Style Score can indicate favorable times to build a position in high-momentum stocks.
Dublin, Ireland-based Adient PLC is one of the world’s largest automotive seating suppliers. Adient maintains longstanding relationships with the largest global auto original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). The company’s technologies extend to virtually every area of automotive seating solutions.
