Topeka Capital analyst Victor Anthony is a fan of “the web”. Not only does he make recommendations on companies like Facebook Inc (NASDAQ:FB), Twitter Inc (NYSE:TWTR) and Google Inc (NASDAQ:GOOG), but he consistently outperforms the S&P-500. He is currently ranked number 28 out of 2303 analysts, but with a record including a 65% success rate of recommended stocks and an average return of +5.6% over the S&P 500, Victor might be moving up to the top 25 any day now.
Twitter Inc (NYSE:TWTR) is just one of the companies that has helped bring Victor success. Recently Victor initiated coverage on TWTR with a BUY rating and a $54.00 2014 year-end target. Victor said, “we believe that Twitter Inc (NYSE:TWTR)’s user and advertising monetization platform is in the early innings. We see a well-defined ecosystem with strong network effects developing around Twitter Inc (NYSE:TWTR) that should lead to out-sized shareholder returns for years to come.” Victor walked away from that recommendation with +60.8% measured performance relative to the S&P-500! And just the other day Victor recommended BUY TWTR bringing him +21.9%!
Victor even won big when people were starting to get concerned about AOL. Even though investors started to scare over concerns about challenging growth prospects, Victor responded with, “we see catalysts of further expense reductions, accelerating growth in video, continued strong capital returns, and resiliency in the core, driving above consensus profit growth in 2014 and 2015.” Victor recommended BUY AOL and ended up earning +20.9% with this recommendation.
With time Victor might be seen at the very top of the analyst rankings, but there’s always a chance that his recommendations might go south. To follow Victor’s and other analysts’ recommendation histories download TipRanks today.
