What is The EPS SyndromeTM?
The EPS Syndrome can only be diagnosed once the first symptom appears: a company reports record EPS yet at the same time demonstrates negative OPS. That alone will trigger the StockDiagnostics.com proprietary algorithms to screen for other anomalies that, if found, result in a diagnosis of The EPS Syndrome. Record earnings announcements can be insidious as they can lull investors into holding or making investments in companies that without The EPS Syndrome diagnosis would otherwise appear to be doing very well. Wall Street research adds to this false sense of security, since many diagnosed companies carry multiple analysts' "strong buy" and "buy" ratings.
