At the center of everything we do is a strong commitment to independent research and sharing its profitable discoveries with investors. This dedication to giving investors a trading advantage led to the creation of our proven Zacks Rank stock-rating system. Since 1988 it has more than doubled the S&P 500 with an average gain of +24.08% per year. These returns cover a period from January 1, 1988 through May 6, 2024. Zacks Rank stock-rating system returns are computed monthly based on the beginning of the month and end of the month Zacks Rank stock prices plus any dividends received during that particular month. A simple, equally-weighted average return of all Zacks Rank stocks is calculated to determine the monthly return. The monthly returns are then compounded to arrive at the annual return. Only Zacks Rank stocks included in Zacks hypothetical portfolios at the beginning of each month are included in the return calculations. Zacks Ranks stocks can, and often do, change throughout the month. Certain Zacks Rank stocks for which no month-end price was available, pricing information was not collected, or for certain other reasons have been excluded from these return calculations. Zacks may license the Zacks Mutual Fund rating provided herein to third parties, including but not limited to the issuer.

ConocoPhillips (COP) and SM Energy (SM) are Aggressive Growth Stocks
Brian Bolan is taking a look at two oil patch names for his aggressive growth video this week. There were some geopolitical tensions which caused oil futures to spike on 2/14/22 so these stocks have seen a recent tail wind. Brian expects the situation to calm down a little, but no one can be certain. ConocoPhillips (COP - Free Report) is the first stock that Brian looks at and this is a mega cap. The valuation looks good as does the chart. Next up was SM Energy (SM - Free Report) which is much smaller at only $4.3B compared to $120B for ConocoPhillips (COP - Free Report) .
In looking at the charts, Brian notes that small caps like SM Energy (SM - Free Report) will often outperform the big caps in periods of growth. When the bears are out and there is pressure on the markets, bigger cap names like COP will outperform the smaller cap names.
