Price is irrelevant. Market cap irrelevant. Looking for stocks that will provide return on investment over a long period of time with either dividends, growth or both.


No wonder you have so many stocks to do DD on! You must narrow the field with specifics.
My suggestion: (this goes for everyone)
It would be a valuable use of your time to review your trading logs for the last year or more. Make note of the relative fundamentals of your winners at the time of purchase, Price, mrktcap, EPS, PEG, SPS, BV, DIV (yes/no and %), so on and so forth. Look for any similarities. All have mrktcap over $1B? All priced between $20 and $50? EPS over 10 but less than 20?
Get the picture?
The really adventurous will do this with the losing positions as well. Learn what to avoid or sell short.

We are all "Looking for stocks that will provide return on investment over a long period of time with either dividends, growth or both.". Let's help each other figure out better ways to find them.

PS It would be really exciting if everyone contributed to forming the sample base by providing the above info on the stocks they bought over the last few years. No need to tell everyone when or what you sold at or even if you never sold just something like this:
Example only not real figures
Winner
IBM @ $30, 14EPS, 1.1PEG, SPS1.1, BV $28, debt $100M, MC $3B etc.

Thoughts?
