It is worth mentioning that shares with a “Perfect 10” Smart Score have historically outperformed the S&P 500 Index (
SPX
) by a wide margin.
Today, we have handpicked two stocks that were recently added to the “Perfect 10” Smart Score list: Amazon (
NASDAQ:AMZN
) and Ferrari (
NYSE:RACE
). Year-to-date, both these stocks have outperformed the 2.1% rally in the S&P 500.
Let’s take a closer look at these stocks.
