Only 2 positions have closed. That is a blotter, not evidence — a handful of trades tells you almost nothing about a rule set, and the numbers above will move a lot as it fills.
The rule, as implemented here
every condition, in the order it is applied
Latest quarterly profit at least 30% above a year ago.
Revenue growth faster than it was a quarter earlier.
Within 10% of the 52-week high.
One-year return in the top 20% of our universe.
Ranking: Fastest profit growth first. Portfolio is the top 12 names, equal-weighted.
Where our version differs: Driehaus read earnings surprises against estimates; India’s retail feeds carry no estimates, so acceleration of reported growth stands in for surprise.
How these numbers were made. Computed here from NSE and BSE end-of-day bhavcopy, adjusted for splits and bonuses, not supplied by anyone being measured. Portfolios are recorded on the day they are published and scored forward from that date, so no figure on this page could have been chosen after the outcome was known. The code that produced them is stamped in build.json.
This is our implementation, not Richard Driehaus’s portfolio. Driehaus read earnings surprises against estimates; India’s retail feeds carry no estimates, so acceleration of reported growth stands in for surprise. None of the authors named on this site are associated with it, and nothing here is advice or a recommendation to buy or sell anything.
