IBD stock screens are regularly updated to add new stocks to watch, as well as weed out those that have started to show weakness. In the tables below, you'll see which stocks have been added to or removed from lists like the IBD 50, IBD Sector Leaders and the IBD Big Cap 20. CF Industries, for example, is a new stock today on the IBD 50 list of top growth stocks to buy and watch.
The screens are based on our proprietary CAN SLIM Investing System, which looks for stocks displaying the common traits typically shared by the best-performing stocks in the early stages of their big price moves.
Check this column each day to help build and maintain your list of stocks to watch with alerts to the most recent changes.
But never buy a stock just because it's on an IBD list. Be sure to do your own research and run all your stock ideas through a buying checklist. And you can use IBD's simple three-step routine to quickly track general market trends, find stocks to watch, and pinpoint the best time to buy and sell.
