It consists of three separate strategies used together to get a good cross section of Mid Cap, Small Cap and Micro Cap stocks. Two of the strategies are also used in the monthly Model Portfolio area and are being used here because they perform especially well with the two week update cycle. The third strategy is new to this website. The criteria used is Earnings per share (EPS) and related data concerning EPS to identify positive trends such as upside, surprises, magnitude, and consensus metrics. In addition, Return on Equity (ROE), change in EPS, change in Sales, Relative Strength and Price to Sales are used.

It was largely even with the benchmarks in 2017. When the Portfolio outperformed, it was usually by a wide margin. The best year was 2016 when it was up by 86%. BSMAX does not go back to year 2004 so it could not be used for a backtest.
