Momentum Stocks Where You Can't Go Wrong in the Long Run

How do you find momentum stocks where you can’t go wrong in the long term? Simple — you add quality to the equation.

Momentum is exciting. Everyone wants to ride a rising stock. But unless you pair it with quality, it can quickly turn into a regretful chase. That’s where most investors go wrong — they fall for price trends without checking the foundation underneath.

At Value Research, we’ve developed a smarter approach using our proprietary Stock Rating framework — a system that scores every listed stock on four critical pillars: Quality, Growth, Valuation, and Momentum.

And today, we want to show you just how powerful that framework is — using a real, actionable stock screen.

The screen: Momentum meets quality

This week, we ran a special screen designed to answer one question:

Which momentum stocks are backed by high-quality businesses and strong fundamentals — and still reasonably priced?

Here’s the exact filter we applied on the Value Research Stock Screener:

• Quality Score: More than 9
• Growth Score: More than 6
• Valuation Score: More than 3
• Momentum Score: More than 7

The result? Just 17 companies.

These aren’t just any stocks. They are:

• High-quality businesses with consistent performance
• Companies with solid growth history and future tailwinds
• Stocks that are already seeing positive price momentum
• Yet still trading at reasonable valuations (not overheated)

This might be the safest way to play momentum — by ensuring the floor (quality) is strong even as the stock climbs higher.

Try this screen now to get the list of 17 names.

Then come back to this article — we’ll talk about one company from this list that we recently added to our Aggressive Growth Portfolio after rigorous analysis.

But data alone isn’t enough

This screen gives you a powerful shortlist. But the real work begins after that.
To truly invest with conviction, you need to:

• Understand the business model and moat
• Evaluate sector risks and opportunities
• Decode management quality and strategy
• Examine how sustainable the earnings growth really is

That’s where most screens fall short. They provide a list — not a decision.

Which is why we go further.

One of these 17 stocks is now in our Aggressive Growth Portfolio

We’ve taken one company from this exact list, dissected its business, tracked its performance, and waited patiently for the right moment. A few months ago, it was too expensive despite strong fundamentals. But the last two quarters changed everything.

Here’s what happened:

• Net profit more than doubled in Q3 FY25
• It tripled again in Q4 FY25
• This earnings surge brought valuations back to reasonable levels — the Valuation Score improved, making it a sound entry point
• The business has sector tailwinds, backward integration initiatives, and high return on capital

This rare mix of high quality, strong momentum, and improving valuations pushed it into our Aggressive Growth Portfolio.

We aren’t revealing the name here — not yet.
But if you’re curious to see how our research converts a screen into a recommendation, this is your chance.
