Over the years, I’ve concluded that most superperformance stocks have common identifiable characteristics. In the majority of cases, decent earnings were already on the table. In fact, the majority of superperformance stocks already had periods of outperformance in terms of fundamentals as well as technical action before they made their biggest gains. More than 90 percent of superperformance stocks began their phenomenal price surges as the general market came out of a correction or bear market. Interestingly, very few stocks had superperformance phases during a bear market.
