*A Consensus Estimate is a figure based on the combined estimates of the analysts covering a public company.

Industry Group Breakdown
The Chaikin Power Grid is one of the most powerful tools in the system. Chaikin suggests an approach of holding strong stocks in strong Industries. The Power Grid plots the stocks in your portfolio with Industries you hold listed strongest at top, weakest at bottom, and stocks displayed along the horizontal axis, weakest to strongest, going left to right.
Note: (Not all stocks may be displayed – Neutral stocks or groups may be dropped, and stocks may be dropped if many cluster in the same area of the grid.)
Our backtesting has shown that stocks in the green upper right quadrant (Strong Stocks, Strong Groups), have a significantly higher chance of outperforming stocks in the lower left quadrant (Weak Stocks, Weak Groups), and the market as a whole.
