A Triple Buy Signal on a Social Media Powerhouse VIEW IN BROWSER BY JASON BODNER, EDITOR, QUANTUM EDGE PRO My trading career started with a faceplant. I was so bad that my boss bet against me – without even looking at the stock, much less doing actual research. That failure changed my life. Out of it was born my Quantum Edge system that has made a lot of money for my clients, my readers, and me. My good friend Louis Navellier – the “king of quants” – failed a college assignment that changed his life. He was supposed to create a computer model that mimicked the S&P 500. Thankfully, Louis didn’t match the S&P 500. He beat it. And he’s been beating it pretty much ever since with his powerful quant analysis system and Stock Grader system. A and B stocks are considered buys. Andy and Landon Swan didn’t fail anything – but their assignment still changed their lives. While working at TD Ameritrade, they dove headfirst into a new platform with a funny logo called “Twitter.” The social media giant is now “X” and has nearly 560 million active users. In the process, the Swans discovered incredible value in the firehose of social media data created every minute of every day. They developed a system that scrapes social media, search trends, and website traffic in real time. It tracks the brands people buzz about and the products they’re likely to buy. And they use this data to spot companies set to grow in both business and stock price. They call their stock rating a Social Heat Score. If you want to spot winners, data and analysis is your edge. Analyzing the right data the right way. Being a data freak, I thought it would be cool to see how the Quantum Score, Stock Grader, and Social Heat Score work together. That’s what we’re going to do today, including one stock that scores well in all three systems.

The Hidden Data Revolution There’s so much going on every day with trading, headlines, and social media buzz that it’s difficult to know what to look for, where to find it, and how to analyze it. Most folks chase headlines or gut feelings. These systems we’ve developed crunch millions of data points to cut through the noise, spot trends, and find stocks likely to make you money. My Quantum Edge system rates more than 5,000 stocks every day on the fundamental and technical metrics that are most predictive of future prices. It’s also like an X-ray into what Big Money is doing. Institutions don’t play by the same rules as the rest of us. They deploy massive amounts of money that can’t help but impact share prices. Institutions and hedge funds make up 70% to 90% of daily trading volume. These are the largest investors in the world. Their money moves stocks. One of my jobs was matching up buyers and sellers in these institutional trades. They paid me to keep their trading activity under the radar, so I learned all the tricks. That knowledge enabled me to design the algorithms that detect Big Money at work. My system brings together the fundamental, technical, and Big Money analysis to arrive at a Quantum Score for every stock. That score gives us a quick reading of whether a stock is a buy. The best zone for buying is a Quantum Score between 85 and 100. It took a lot of money and hard work to build my system, but it has more than paid for itself. It has helped me, my family, my research firm’s clients, and my readers build wealth. Louis Navellier is a legendary quant investor who I greatly admire. He is a mentor and a friend. We meet weekly and love nothing more than nerding out over stocks. Louis uses quantitative analysis in his system. He also focuses on a company’s fundamentals, like sales and earnings growth, operating margin, analyst earnings revisions, and more. And he measures “buying pressure,” which is like my Big Money tracking. The more money that floods into a stock, the more momentum it has to rise. Louis has also helped a lot of people make money through the years. I’m a fan of his system, and I’m happy he is a fan of mine. And we’re both fans of the Swans’ innovative analysis using online chatter to make money. Their system measures buzz around a product, brand, or trend, tracks positive and negative mentions, and gauges whether those consumers are actually spending their hard-earned cash (or plan to in the near future). Their Social Heat Score uses a one-of-a-kind fusion of machine learning and data extraction to anticipate which stocks are gaining momentum on Main Street before Wall Street catches on. Like tracking Big Money, that’s a huge advantage. One Stock We All Like The Swans’ Social Media Heat Score started with their research into the company formerly known as Twitter. So it makes sense that one stock that scores well in all our systems is another “formerly known as” company. Meta Platforms (META), formerly known as Facebook. Facebook is still massively important. It is the largest social media platform in the world with more than 3 billion users, topping Instagram’s 2.5 billion. That tops YouTube, Instagram, and WhatsApp. And guess what? META also owns Instagram and WhatsApp. Meta is incorporating AI into its advertising systems, content generation, and user engagement. There are cool consumer devices like AI glasses (by Ray-Ban) and the Meta Quest virtual reality headsets. And the company still has plans for the Metaverse, which was the reason behind the name change four years ago. META scores well in my system and the others. 
Source: TradeSmith Finance META’s Quantum Score sits in the buy zone at 88.4. The fundamentals rate even higher, and the Technical Score is strong but not overheated at 86.3. That’s not surprising since shares have surged more than 50% since their April lows. My system picked up seven Big Money buy signals in that time. Louis’ Stock Grader rates META a B, making it a buy in his system as well. His system gives META a B in its fundamental and quantitative grades, showing similar consistency with my Quantum Edge system. 
And not surprisingly, the social media giant posts a highly bullish Social Heat Score of 85.2. 
Source: TradeSmith Finance Andy and Landon consider a score of 70 and above bullish, so META is well in the buy range. They see META proving more competent in battling competition like TikTok, and they think improvements on the AI front and growth in advertising mean there’s still gas in the tank. To gain even more firepower, the Swans and Louis have combined their systems to identify “Ultimate Stocks.” These are stocks both systems love. They are buys in Stock Grader and have high Social Heat Scores. Not many stocks meet those criteria – roughly 2% of all those tested. The algorithms in this Ultimate Stock Strategy predicted 240 doubles over five years with a total return of 15X the S&P 500. Louis, Andy, and Landon will reveal all the details during a special event next Tuesday, Oct. 28, at 10:00 a.m. ET. Click here to save your seat now. That’s a powerhouse trio. They told me they would like to deliver at least one stock that doubles by Christmas – which is only two months away – so you’ll want to check it out. As management consultant and economist W. Edwards Deming said, “In God we trust; all others bring data.” The same is true of investing, and we are living in a golden age of data retrieval and analysis. Talk soon,
