High-upside, higher-risk stocks

Universe : 🏛️ S&P 500 ⚡ JPI Risk + — the aggressive
Among reliable analysts, we follow the most optimistic (max upside). 11-year backtest: +30%/yr, ratio 1.03. ⚠️ BUT ~29% volatility and irregular returns. Often contrarian bets. The risky satellite, not a quiet investment.
💡 Many of these stocks are down over 12 months — that's expected: the method targets upside (gap to target), so it leans toward beaten-down names. In the backtest, ~half the picks rebounded +38%/yr on average the following year. ⚠️ But it varies a lot by year — best used as a satellite, not your whole portfolio.

Frequently asked questions

High-upside, higher-risk stocks?

The JPI Risk + (aggressive) selection: among analysts reliable on the sector, we follow the most optimistic. The highest upside, but more volatile — for a risk-tolerant profile. The full list is in the table above, updated regularly.

How is this selection built?

We analyze the analysts, not the stocks: we replay every target against real prices, keep only those who beat their sector, then apply the JPI Risk + (the most optimistic reliable analyst) formula. Details on the « method » page.

Can I switch methods?

Yes: the buttons at the top switch between the 3 methods (Cautious, Balanced, Aggressive) and the stocks common to all 3 — each method has its own URL.

What is JPI Invest?

JPI Invest aggregates analyst recommendations across the entire S&P 500 (plus the S&P MidCap 400), replays them against real prices and measures who predicts best — on results, not reputation. Instead of taking a price target at face value, you see each analyst's track record on each stock.
