Are You Looking for a Top Momentum Pick? Why Grupo Supervielle (SUPV) is a Great Choice

Momentum investing revolves around the idea of following a stock's recent trend in either direction. In the 'long' context, investors will be essentially be "buying high, but hoping to sell even higher." With this methodology, taking advantage of trends in a stock's price is key; once a stock establishes a course, it is more than likely to continue moving that way. The goal is that once a stock heads down a fixed path, it will lead to timely and profitable trades.Even though momentum is a popular stock characteristic, it can be tough to define. Debate surrounding which are the best and worst metrics to focus on is lengthy, but the Zacks Momentum Style Score, part of the Zacks Style Scores, helps address this issue for us.Below, we take a look at Grupo Supervielle (SUPV), which currently has a Momentum Style Score of A. We also discuss some of the main drivers of the Momentum Style Score, like price change and earnings estimate revisions.It's also important to note that Style Scores work as a complement to the Zacks Rank, our stock rating system that has an impressive track record of outperformance.

It is also useful to compare a security to its industry, as this can help investors pinpoint the top companies in a particular area.For SUPV, shares are up 11.5% over the past week while the Zacks Banks - Foreign industry is up 0.41% over the same time period. Shares are looking quite well from a longer time frame too, as the monthly price change of 21.41% compares favorably with the industry's 0.02% performance as well.While any stock can see its price increase, it takes a real winner to consistently beat the market. That is why looking at longer term price metrics -- such as performance over the past three months or year -- can be useful as well.
