May 2024 was another busy month for us – lots of really nice things transpired that are worth pointing out, not only within our model portfolio universe, but also within the universe of stocks pitches that are published on GeoInvesting by our contributors. Our contributors pitch stocks to our network, either through writing articles or videos, usually as part of our subscriber only attended live monthly open forum events or recorded Investor Insight Skull Session podcast events 

See list of all contributor research reports here.

Our open forums are live events that we hold at the beginning of each month to review the prior month’s news flow in the microcap universe and highlights certain stocks within our 1500+ microcap stock coverage universe that we particularly like. We also bring up improvements we are making to GeoInvesting’s research platform on a monthly basis. If you have not attended live yet, I highly recommend you try to make it once in a while, since we often discuss timely topics and new focus ideas. 

The Forum is heavily focused on reviewing the best earnings reports we touched upon during our morning emails throughout the month. We use the monthly forum to expand on the best ones of that bunch.

Speaking of which, during our morning emails in May, we highlighted 64 earnings reports within the microcap universe that we want to track. 

Now, the tough job is going back and looking at these earnings reports to see which ones are the best, some of which will be covered in an abbreviated session of our monthly forum scheduled to be held on June 12, 2024. 

The reason for the abbreviated session is that I am preparing for a special Starting Five Virtual Conference to be held on June 12, 2024. 

Learn more about the inaugural Starting Five event by viewing this video. It’s extremely important that you make an attempt to attend the Starting Five event. The more successful the event is, the easier it will be for us to invite great companies to GeoInvesting to share their stories with us. 

So far this year, we’ve processed 137 earnings reports, which is ahead of schedule versus last year, where we processed 84 Earnings Reports through the end of May 2023.

We do all this to make your job easier, so you don’t have to hunt through a 10,000-microcap stock universe all by yourself. We love turning over these rocks, so why not just bring the results of that research directly to you.

My 2024 Statistics and Data Points Highlights 

32 stocks across our model portfolios and screens reached 52-week new highs during May. 

The best returning stock on that high list so far this year is $FTLF, which is actually up 1,932.91% since we added it to our model portfolio and this year alone, it’s up 60.68%. Additionally, it’s up over 8.5% since we mentioned it as our focus stock in our April 2024 Monthly Forum. 

“FitLife Brands is a manufacturer of innovative and proprietary nutritional supplements for health-conscious consumers.”

FTLF returns got a little dinged right at the close on Friday, falling 7.36% after a form 4 was filed, showing that the Chief Retail Officer sold his entire position in FTLF, or 10,544 shares. (All we care about is the CEO in this story).

Regardless, FTLF returns shows that sometimes the best stocks are the ones that you already own. Many people would think we’re crazy for focusing on a stock that’s already up 2,000% since we first wrote about it, but great stocks are like great steaks that you prepare for a barbecue. Sometimes you’ve got to let them marinate to get the best results. By the way, huge shout out to Avram Fisher for his bullish FTLF research report he published on GeoInvesting on FTLF. 

Stock Talk

$TSSI

Obviously, the May highlight was TSSI. We’ve been hammering home the bull case on $TSSI for several weeks and that the market was not recognizing TSSI’s participation in elevated data center growth trends.

And all of a sudden, the stock rose 158.02% in May 2024, hitting an all-time high and peak return of 1,195%, since we added it to a GeoInvesting model portfolio.

To get a little more information on the stock and what we were talking about, you can visit last week’s GeoWire Issue #138. We also discussed how you simply could have used a string of past earnings call transcripts to put the pieces of the puzzle together to be able to predict this price performance, to some degree.
