The Sabrient International Opportunity Series has been discontinued.

Description: Introduced on June 7, 2018, the Inernational Opportunity Series seeks above-average total returns from stocks selected from variety of countries and within those countries from a mixture of sectors and industries. The stocks are selected by applying a seven-step selection process based on the Sabrient strategy. Among the criteria, the stocks selected are international GARP stocks -- stocks that exhibit "growth at a reasonable price" based on our proprietary algorithm. The stocks must have a minimum price and minimum trading volume; earnings estimates that reflect high confidence by the analysts in their estimates; and a strong long-term growth rate.  The portfolio is diversified by country, sector and industry, with not more than approximately 25% in any one country, 30% in any one sector, and 15% in any one industry.

Our proprietary forensic accounting factor -- Earnings Quality Rank (EQR) -- is incorporated into the strategy to determine the relative safety of the dividends over the next 15 months.
