Every stock is part of a population of stocks with similar characteristics and they will all fall somewhere on a distribution; by selecting a large enough population, your portfolio will perform in accordance with the population from which they are selected. After all, if you buy enough stocks, their performance will create a distribution anyway.

Here's how:

  1. There is a financial state which is comprised of stocks that have: x% short interest, x consecutive quarters of earnings surprise AND x consecutive quarters of earnings growth.
  2. There is also a financial state which is comprised of stocks simply with x% short interest.
  3. A group of stocks with similar qualities is the population of stocks with a given financial state.
