Chris LaFemina — Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate are Chris LaFemina's stock ratings?
Based on the calls 13Foresight could measure, about 63% of Chris's ratings were profitable over a one-year hold, with an average return of +11.2% per rating, or +2.9% versus the S&P 500. We score every analyst the same way, from historical prices. Each return is measured in the stock's own trading currency, so for non-US listings the S&P 500 comparison leaves out currency moves.
How is Chris ranked on 13Foresight?
Chris LaFemina is currently ranked #665 with a 4-star rating. Our rank blends hit rate, average return versus the market, and how many calls we have to judge — so a long, consistent record outweighs a few lucky picks. It is our own calculation, updated daily.
Which stocks does Chris cover?
Chris most recently has ratings on HCC, GB:RIO, AMR, GB:GLEN, TSE:ASTL, TSE:LUN, GB:AAL, AU:RIO, AU:BHP, TSE:FM, GB:ANTO, CMC and 29 more. See the full coverage table above for positions, price targets and our measured returns.
