Investment Recovery Time added to Watch List and Market Analysis Reports. Now you can use this value to compare stocks in your Watch List and Market Analysis Reports.

Investment Recovery Time is the number of years it would take for a company's cumulative earnings (beginning at a base level of $1.00) to equal the stock's current P/E ratio, assuming that the company continues to increase its annual earnings at the projected growth rate. A Recovery Time of six years, for example, means that it would take six years for an investor to recoup the price paid now for $1 of corporate earnings (the P/E ratio).

Just like PE ratio, investors can use the Investment Recovery Time to compare the value of stocks: if one stock has a P/E twice that of another stock, all things being equal (especially the earnings growth rate), it is a less attractive investment. Basically, the smaller Investment Recovery Time is the better investment it is.

Investment Recovery Time shows the correlation between current market price and EPS. Phil Town, the author of "Rule #1" and "Payback Time"said "A payback time of ten years or less is an attractive price. The Payback Time of less than six years is very attractive. Very."

Investment Recovery Time is available in the "Value Price" section of Stock Analyzer.

It analyses latest 6 weeks of trading of the stock plus 6 weeks of trading for industry and sector this stock belongs to. There are bull or bear indicators along with MA150, MA200 and weekly price changes. All results are presented in a form of heat map: the more days of each week prices goes up, the greener background color is.

Yearly growth rates added to the "Raw Financial Data" and "Raw Quarterly Data" sections. We used to check bar charts in order to see data dynamics, but now more precious analysis is available - exact year-to-year growth rates.

One more big change for growth rates calculations. There are two new "default" values for growth rates introduced: if value got out from negative territory you will see growth rate +100% and vice versa if value went to negative territory, you will see growth -100%.

700 ETFs added to the Stock Analyzer. All of them are categorized as an "Exchange Traded Product". Because of the nature of ETFs, there are only Technical Indicators available for ETFs.

There is also a new Theory section created with basic information about ETFs.

150 and 200 days Moving Averages added to the 90 days chart.

This small adition allows us to evaluate market condition for a particular stock. If the 150 day (or 30 week) moving average is above the 200 day (or 40 week) moving average then it is technically considered a bull market and if the 150 is below the 200 its a bear market.

stock2own.com was completely redesigned. It looks different, it works faster and it organizes data in a better way.

For example, StockAnalyzer includes a company "snapshot" on the left side of the screen, where you can see all major information represented in a short form.

Financial Statement sections present data in a mixed form now - you can see absolute values along with bar charts on the same screeen.
