We used Finder’s proprietary algorithm to rate stocks listed on the NYSE and Nasdaq based on price, performance, profit, revenue and dividends. Our fundamental analysis filters stocks by taking into account historical prices, dividends, revenue growth, (low) price volatility and profit margins.
This might indicate a quality stock, but we do not guarantee the performance or returns of any investment.To avoid smaller, more speculative stocks, we only include companies with a market cap of more than USD $1 billion. In order to better compare historical data, we filtered out stocks that have been listed for less than five years.
This methodology no doubt filters out some good stocks, so our decision to include or exclude a stock from our list does not indicate whether it’s a good or bad investment. For more information about our algorithm, check out our stock ranking page.
Finder is committed to editorial independence. While we receive compensation when you click links to partners, they do not influence our content.

What you should know before buying stocks
There’s no single winning strategy to finding what experts might call the best performing US stocks on the NYSE and Nasdaq, because the most important considerations are your own goals and circumstances. But that shouldn’t discourage you from doing your homework and investing.
Whether you care more about short-term capital gains or long-term dividend growth, it’s important to know whether a stock is performing well, making a profit, paying dividends or going backwards. Always remember that past performance does not guarantee future results. Investments can go up and down in value.
The information provided here is general in nature. It is not personal financial advice, and your personal objectives, financial situation and needs have not been taken into consideration. The best Canadian stocks listed on this page may not be the best investments for you. So you should do your own research, and speak with an investment professional if in doubt.
