How Some Members Use Valuentum’s Investment Services
We serve a wide variety of investors, including dividend growth investors, value investors, and pure Valuentum investors, among others. Many different types of investors and professionals use our research and financial analysis in a whole host of applications from individual stock-selection to the evaluation of closed-end funds to an overlay in a money-management setting and beyond. The Best Ideas Newsletter portfolio seeks to find stocks that have good value and good momentum characteristics and typically targets capital appreciation potential over a longer-term horizon. The Dividend Growth Newsletter portfolio seeks to find underpriced dividend growth gems that generate strong levels of free cash flow and have pristine, fortress balance sheets, translating into excellent Valuentum Dividend Cushion ratios. The High Yield Dividend Newsletter portfolio seeks to find some of the highest-yielding stocks supported by strong credit profiles and solid business models, but not always robust traditional free cash flow. Ideas in this newsletter offer higher-yielding opportunities, but also much higher capital and income risk. We also offer a full suite of products to financial advisers (gold level) that range from a more extensive Excel-based screening tool (the DataScreener) to 'Ideas' and 'Dividend' publications that are released on a quarterly basis. Our research product includes hundreds of stock reports, fair values, fair value ranges, associated commentary, as well as dividend reports with Valuentum Dividend Cushion ratios and expected dividend growth rates. Silver and gold-level members can add the Valuentum Exclusive or additional options commentary/ideas to their plans. The Exclusive publication is a part of the institutional (platinum) level membership.

Success rates do not consider trading costs or tax implications. Data through December 8, 2023. Past results are not a guarantee of future performance.From fantastic success rates in the Exclusive publication and strong capital preservation tendencies in the simulated High Yield Dividend Newsletter portfolio to relative outperformance in both the Dividend Growth Newsletter portfolio and Best Ideas Newsletter portfolio the past two years, the Valuentum newsletter suite continues to deliver in a big way for what members are looking for. We thank you for another excellent year in 2023, and we hope that you have a happy, healthy, and prosperous 2024!

Ferrari's Results Speak to Resilience in Ultra-Luxury Markets
Image: Ferrari raised its guidance for 2023. Ferrari raised its year-end guidance thanks in part to a strong product mix and improved revenue from racing activities, and the firm noted that its “order book remains at highest levels reflecting strong demand across all geographies, covering the entire 2025.” We couldn’t be happier with the performance at Ferrari, and the momentum speaks to continued strength across the ultra-luxury landscape. We like Ferrari as one of our favorite automakers, a name that we prefer much more than any of the Big 3 in Detroit.

Paper: Value and Momentum Within Stocks, Too
Abstract: This paper strives to advance the field of finance in four ways: 1) it extends the theory of the “The Arithmetic of Active Management” to the investor level; 2) it addresses certain data problems of factor-based methods, namely with respect to value and book-to-market ratios, while introducing price-to-fair-value ratios in a factor-based approach; 3) it may lay the foundation for academic literature regarding the Valuentum, the value-timing, and ultra-momentum factors; and 4) it walks through the potential relative outperformance that may be harvested at the intersection of relevant, unique and compensated factors within individual stocks.
