It doesn't matter your age or experience: taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals for all investors.
Many investors also have a go-to methodology that helps guide their buy and sell decisions. One way to find winning stocks based on your preferred way of investing is to use the Zacks Style Scores, which are indicators that rate stocks based on three widely-followed investing types: value, growth, and momentum.
For momentum investors, upward or downward trends in a stock's price or earnings outlook take precedent, so they'll want to zero in on the Momentum Style Score. This Score can pinpoint good times to build a position in a stock, using factors like one-week price change and the monthly percentage change in earnings estimates.
SCCO sits at a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), holds a Momentum Style Score of B, and has a VGM Score of B. The stock is up 3.4% and up 0.4% over the past one-week and four-week period, respectively, and Southern Copper has gained 19.2% in the last one-year period as well. Additionally, an average of 1,274,207.38 shares were traded over the last 20 trading sessions.
A company's earnings performance is important for momentum investors as well. For fiscal 2025, two analysts revised their earnings estimate higher in the last 60 days for SCCO, while the Zacks Consensus Estimate has increased $0.01 to $4.62 per share. SCCO also boasts an average earnings surprise of 7.9%.
Investors should take the time to consider SCCO for their portfolios due to its solid Zacks Ranks, notable earnings metrics, and impressive Momentum and VGM Style Scores.
