Sam Margolin β€” Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate are Sam Margolin's stock ratings?
Based on the calls 13Foresight could measure, about 56% of Sam's ratings were profitable over a one-year hold, with an average return of +3.4% per rating, or +0.1% 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 Sam ranked on 13Foresight?
Sam Margolin is currently ranked #754 with a 4-star rating. Our rank blends hit rate, average return versus the market, and how many calls we have to judge β€” so a long, consistent record outweighs a few lucky picks. It is our own calculation, updated daily.

Sam most recently has ratings on AR, SHEL, PSX, EQT, RRC, VLO, DINO, MPC, DK, CVX, SM, OXY and 40 more. See the full coverage table above for positions, price targets and our measured returns.
