3 Market-Beating Stocks to Research Further

Stocks that outperform the market usually share key traits such as rising sales, expanding margins, and increasing returns on capital. The select few that can do all three for many years are often the ones that make you life-changing money.

Long story short, there is a near-perfect correlation between consistent earnings growth and huge winners. Keeping that in mind, here are three market-beating stocks that deserve a spot on your list.

AAR (AIR)

Five-Year Return: +206%

The first third-party MRO approved by the FAA for Safety Management System Requirements, AAR (NYSE:AIR) is a provider of aircraft maintenance services

Why Does AIR Stand Out?

1. Annual revenue growth of 17% over the last two years was superb and indicates its market share increased during this cycle
2. Expected revenue growth of 15.6% for the next year suggests its market share will rise
3. Earnings per share grew by 17.9% annually over the last two years and trumped its peers

AAR is trading at $105.67 per share, or 20.5x forward P/E. Is now the time to initiate a position? See for yourself in our full research report, it’s free.

IonQ (IONQ)

Five-Year Return: +279%

Founded by quantum physics pioneers from the University of Maryland and Duke University in 2015, IonQ (NYSE:IONQ) develops quantum computers that process information using trapped ions to solve complex computational problems beyond the capabilities of traditional computers.

Why Do We Like IONQ?

1. Annual revenue growth of 101% over the past two years was outstanding, reflecting market share gains this cycle
2. Market share is on track to rise over the next 12 months as its 115% projected revenue growth implies demand will accelerate from its two-year trend
3. Adjusted operating profits increased over the last five years as the company gained some leverage on its fixed costs and became more efficient

IonQ’s stock price of $43.75 implies a valuation ratio of 78.6x forward price-to-sales. Is now a good time to buy? Find out in our full research report, it’s free.

Interactive Brokers (IBKR)

Five-Year Return: +362%

Founded in 1977 and known for its sophisticated trading technology and global reach across 150+ exchanges in 34 countries, Interactive Brokers (NASDAQ:IBKR) is a global electronic broker that provides low-cost trading and investment services across stocks, options, futures, forex, bonds, and other financial instruments.

Why Is IBKR a Top Pick?

1. Market share has increased this cycle as its 22.8% annual revenue growth over the last five years was exceptional
2. Additional sales over the last five years increased its profitability as the 28.8% annual growth in its earnings per share outpaced its revenue
3. Impressive 20.7% annual tangible book value per share growth over the last two years indicates it’s building equity value this cycle

At $75.63 per share, Interactive Brokers trades at 31.1x forward P/E. Is now the right time to buy? See for yourself in our comprehensive research report, it’s free.
