using vector vest I found all 100 stocks in the IBD 200, and found their VST rating. Vectorvest uses a VST composite rating to determine the stocks with the highest rated value, safety, and timing.
How is IBD 100 selected:
They are selected based on Investor Business Daily's proprietary SmartSelect Composite Rating. Now look at what goes in to that rating:
From IBD:
Composite Rating, SmartSelect®
# Earnings Per Share (EPS) Rating
# Relative Price Strength (RS) Rating
# Industry Group Relative Strength Rating
# Sales+Profit Margins+ROE (SMR) Rating
# Accumulation/Distribution Rating
The IBD SmartSelect Composite Rating combines all 5 SmartSelect Ratings into one easy-to-use rating. More weight is placed on EPS and RS Rating, and the stock's percent off its 52-week high is also included in the formula. Results are then compared to all other companies, and each company is assigned a rating from 1-99 with 99 being the best. A 90 rating means that the stock has outperformed 90% of all other stocks in terms of its combinedSmartSelect Ratings.
A special thanks to pradeep at stockbee.blogspot.com for explanation of the IBD composite ranking system
I took all stocks in the IBD 100 with a VST rating above 1.4

The Average return for this Portfolio should be higher due to TSO splitting. Isn't this correct?
