The ERS ALPHA ALGORITHMICS™ system identifies stocks meeting specific quantitative criteria as they qualify — on each stock's own schedule. Across a 10-year historical study (December 2013 through December 2023), every one of ERS's seven models significantly outperformed the S&P 500 on a one-year holding basis. Average excess return across all seven models: 42.8%.

“These models don't predict the future. They identify stocks that have historically demonstrated specific financial characteristics — and they document what happened next. A decade of data is not an accident. It is evidence.”
— Raymond M. Mullaney, Founder & CEO, Equity Risk Sciences · 49 years of investment industry experienceAlpha Algorithmics™ results reflect a historical simulation, not a portfolio. Each stock is identified on the first date it meets the model's criteria; returns are measured from that date over the stated holding period and compared against the S&P 500 for the identical period.
