Investing.com -- InvestingPro members following our AI-powered list of stock picks have crossed yet another milestone.
After the AI model delivered timely calls at the beginning of August on names such as ViaSat Inc (NASDAQ:VSAT) (up +57.30% since), Sapiens (+59.40% since), Bausch Health Companies (NYSE:BHC) (36.43% since), and Unitedhealth Group (NYSE:UNH) (+27.96% MTD)—just to name a few double-digit winners from the list —the composed return of the list of our top-performing list of picks since launch in the real world in November 2023 has jumped to an eye-popping 120.41%.
That’s an astonishing +81.62% outperformance over the benchmark S&P 500 during that same period.
Not only that, but the aggregate hit rate for all US picks in August currently stands at 83%. In terms of composed strategies, 100% are in the green, with the top performing currently delivering a +7.5% gain in the month alone —+17.45% in 2025. That compares with a 9.01% return for the S&P 500 during the same period (8.44% lower).

But how does the AI stock picker actually work?
At the start of each month, our AI refreshes each strategy with up to 20 stock picks. These selections are based on a blend of more than 150 well-established financial models compiled by our machine learning model on over 15 years of financial data worldwide.
Some stocks are added, others retained, and a few are removed, reflecting how the model reassesses each company’s medium-term growth potential.
To track performance, each strategy uses equal weighting across all selected stocks. While you’re not required to follow that weighting exactly, it offers a consistent benchmark to evaluate how well the model identifies opportunities across the board.
At the end of the day, stock picking is still a game of probabilities. But the key isn’t just finding winners — it’s knowing when to move on from the ones that no longer stack up.
Since launch, the model has done just that — delivering more than a few standout success stories along the way.
As a matter of fact, our backtest suggests that going the long run is the surest path to long-term wealth generation.

This means a $100K principal in our strategy would have turned into an eye-popping $2,420,100.
