Taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals for new and old investors alike.
Achieving those goals is made easier with the Zacks Style Scores, a unique set of guidelines that rates stocks based on popular investing methodologies, namely value, growth, and momentum. The Style Scores can help you narrow down which stocks are better for your portfolio and which ones can beat the market over the long-term.
For momentum investors, upward or downward trends in a stock's price or earnings outlook take precedent, so they'll want to zero in on the Momentum Style Score. This Score can pinpoint good times to build a position in a stock, using factors like one-week price change and the monthly percentage change in earnings estimates.
Based in Atlanta, GA, PulteGroup Inc. engages in homebuilding and financial services businesses, primarily in the United States. The company conducts operations through two primary business segments – Homebuilding (which contributed 98% as of 2023 to total revenues) and Financial Services (2%).
PHM sits at a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), holds a Momentum Style Score of A, and has a VGM Score of A. The stock is up 2.9% and up 4.6% over the past one-week and four-week period, respectively, and PulteGroup has gained 11.8% in the last one-year period as well. Additionally, an average of 1,448,555.63 shares were traded over the last 20 trading sessions.
A company's earnings performance is important for momentum investors as well. For fiscal 2024, one analyst revised their earnings estimate higher in the last 60 days for PHM, while the Zacks Consensus Estimate has increased $0.01 to $13.43 per share. PHM also boasts an average earnings surprise of 10.9%.
PHM should be on investors' short list because of its impressive earnings fundamentals, a good Zacks Rank, and strong Momentum and VGM Style Scores.
