Low Float Stocks
A couple books I read have mentioned “low float” as a beneficial characteristic of growth stocks. But that’s all the detail given and clearly it’s not enough. First, I didn’t know what Float was. Second, I didn’t know what low or high float was. Here’s what I found:
Float : The number of shares available for trading of a particular stock. (source)
Low Float is difficult to define because 'low’ may depend on your opinion and/or the size of the companies you invest in. For context, here are a handful of stocks with current float in (August, 2016):
Apple (APPL) 5.37 billion
Facebook (FB) 2.27 billion
Nvidia (NVDA) 502 million
Tesla (TSLA) 118 million
MaxLinear (MXL) 56 million
Acacia (ACIA) 8 million
New Concept Energy (GBR) 833 thousand
Without a clear number I had to pick something to filter my stock research, screening, etc. I decided to start with 50 million as the maximum. The stocks I’ve found have had all the characteristics I’m looking for (small to mid cap, excellent earnings and sales) and there are a good number to pick from. If the results aren’t great or become too limited I can increase the maximum to 75 or 100 million to expand the pool of stocks to choose from.
