Here at Zacks, we offer our members many different opportunities to take full advantage of the stock market, as well as how to invest in ways that lead to long-term success.
One of our most popular services, Zacks Premium offers daily updates of the Zacks Rank and Zacks Industry Rank; full access to the Zacks #1 Rank List; Equity Research reports; and Premium stock screens like the Earnings ESP filter. All are useful tools to find what stocks to buy, what to sell, and what are today&#39;s hottest industries.
Also included in Zacks Premium is the Focus List. This is a long-term portfolio of top stocks that have all the traits to beat the market.
&nbsp;
<h2>Breaking Down the Zacks Focus List</h2>
&nbsp;
Building an investment portfolio from scratch can be difficult, so if you could, wouldn&#39;t you take a peek at a curated list of top stocks?
That&#39;s what the Zacks Focus List, a portfolio of 50 stocks, offers investors. Not only does it serve as a starting point for long-term investors, but all stocks included in the list are poised to outperform the market over the next 12 months.
One thing that makes the Focus List even more advantageous is that each pick comes with a full Zacks Analyst Report. This helps explain why each stock was selected and why we believe it&#39;s a good pick for the long-term.
The portfolio&#39;s past performance only solidifies why investors should consider it as a starting point. For 2020, the Focus List gained 13.85% on an annualized basis compared to the S&amp;P 500&#39;s return of 9.38%. Cumulatively, the portfolio has returned 2,519.23% while the S&amp;P returned 854.95%. Returns are for the period of February 1, 1996 to March 31, 2021.
&nbsp;
<h2>Focus List Methodology</h2>
&nbsp;
When stocks are picked for the Focus List, it reflects our enduring reliance on the power of earnings estimate revisions.
Brokerage analysts are in charge of determining a company&#39;s growth and profitability expectations, or earnings estimates. These analysts work together with company management to evaluate all factors that may affect future earnings, like interest rates, the economy, and sector and industry optimism.
Earnings estimate revisions are very important, since investors also need to take into consideration what a company will earn in the future.
The stocks that receive positive changes to earnings estimates are more likely to receive even more upward changes in the future. Take this example: if an analyst raised their estimates last month, they&#39;ll probably do so again this month, and other analysts will follow.
Utilizing the power of earnings estimate revisions is when the Zacks Rank joins the party. A unique, proprietary stock-rating model, the Zacks Rank uses changes to quarterly earnings expectations to help investors create a winning portfolio.
Four primary factors make up the Zacks Rank: Agreement, Magnitude, Upside, and Surprise. Each is given a raw score that&#39;s recalculated every night and compiled into the Rank, and with this data, stocks are then classified into five groups, ranging from &quot;Strong Buy&quot; to &quot;Strong Sell.&quot;
The Focus List is comprised of stocks hand-picked from a long list of #1 (Strong Buy) or #2 (Buy) ranked companies, meaning that each new addition boasts a bullish earnings consensus among analysts.
It can be very profitable to buy stocks with rising earnings estimates, as stock prices respond to revisions. By adding Focus List stocks, there&#39;s a great chance you&#39;ll be getting into companies whose future earnings estimates will be raised, which can lead to price momentum.
&nbsp;
<h2>Focus List Spotlight: Goldman Sachs (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/gs#NYSE">GS</a>)</h2>

Cloud software company Salesforce Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>) could highlight its growth in AI and recent partnerships when the company reports fourth-quarter financial results after <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings">market close Wednesday.</a>
Earnings Estimates: Analysts expect Salesforce to report fourth-quarter revenue of $10.04 billion. That&#8217;s up from $9.29 billion in last year's fourth quarter according to data <a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent022525&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1">from Benzinga Pro.</a>
Salesforce has beaten analyst estimates for revenue in two straight quarters and nine of the last 10 quarters overall.
Analysts expect the company to report fourth-quarter earnings per share of $2.61, up from $2.29 in last year's fourth quarter. The company missed analyst estimates for earnings per share in the third quarter, but has beaten estimates in nine of the last 10 quarters.
Several of the figures reported by the company could be records if analyst estimates are met. 
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/12/42302924/salesforce-q3-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-miss-free-cash-flow-up-30-ai-driving-groundbreaking-transformation-and-more">Guidance from Salesforce </a>calls for fourth-quarter revenue to be in a range of $9.9 billion to $10.1 billion. The company expects fourth-quarter earnings per share will come in a range of $2.57 to $2.62.

What Analysts Are Saying: Analysts have been mixed on Salesforce stock heading into the earnings print.
JPMorgan analysts highlighted Salesforce as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/02/43494592/jpmorgan-picks-winners-losers-after-deepseek-debut-how-alphabet-amazon-intel-and-oracle-rank">a potential winner</a> in the AI ripple effect created by DeepSeek's entry in the AI space.
The analysts said companies like Salesforce that enable seamless AI adoption could see an acceleration in demand. Rival companies that are reliant on legacy infrastructure could be hurt by the presence of DeepSeek, the analysts said.
Here are recent<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CRM/analyst-ratings"> analyst ratings on Salesforce </a>and their price targets:
<ul>
<li>Citigroup: Maintained Neutral rating, lowered price target from $390 to $350</li>
<li>BMO Capital: Maintained Outperform rating, lowered price target from $425 to $375</li>
<li>Loop Capital: Maintained Hold rating, lowered price target from $360 to $330</li>
<li>Needham: Reiterated Buy rating, with $400 price target</li>
<li>TD Cowen: Upgraded stock from Hold to Buy, raised price target from $380 to $400</li>
</ul>
Key Items to Watch: The financial results from Salesforce come after several recent business announcements. Salesforce announced it is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43919364/ai-meets-data-salesforce-google-collaborate-to-revolutionize-autonomous-business-agents">expanding its strategic partnership</a> with Google to offer greater flexibility to businesses in selecting AI models and deploying AI-driven agents.
Through the partnership, Salesforce customers can build Agentforce agents using Google's Gemini and deploy Salesforce on Google Cloud.
Salesforce also recently announced its plan to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43616463/salesforce-and-aws-pledge-500m-to-boost-ai-development-in-saudi-arabia">invest $500 million</a> in Saudi Arabia to boost its artificial intelligence deployment. The company will roll out Hyperforce in Saudi Arabia through an alliance with Amazon Web Services.
Salesforce is setting up a regional headquarters in Riyadh as part of its plan to expand its AI footprint around the world.
The company is ramping up hiring for AI sales roles as the sector becomes a larger driver for growth.
Analysts and investors will be looking for more commentary on the company's Agentforce, which got plenty of love from CEO Marc Benioff in the third-quarter results commentary.
"With Agentforce, we're not just witnessing the future — we're leading it, unleashing a new era of digital labor for every business and every industry," Benioff said.
Investors and analysts will also be looking forward to guidance for the next fiscal year.
Price Action: Salesforce stock is down 0.7% to $306.00 Tuesday versus a 52-week trading range of $212.00 to $369.00. Salesforce stock is down 7.5% year-to-date in 2025.

Here's How Much $1000 Invested In Ovintiv 5 Years Ago Would Be Worth Today

All investors love getting big returns from their portfolio, whether it&#39;s through stocks, bonds, ETFs, or other types of securities. But for income investors, generating consistent cash flow from each of your liquid investments is your primary focus.
While cash flow can come from bond interest or interest from other types of investments, income investors hone in on dividends. A dividend is the distribution of a company&#39;s earnings paid out to shareholders; it&#39;s often viewed by its dividend yield, a metric that measures a dividend as a percent of the current stock price. Many academic studies show that dividends make up large portions of long-term returns, and in many cases, dividend contributions surpass one-third of total returns.
&nbsp;
<h2>Cummins in Focus</h2>
&nbsp;
Cummins (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cmi#NYSE">CMI</a>) is headquartered in Columbus, and is in the Auto-Tires-Trucks sector. The stock has seen a price change of 3.4% since the start of the year. The engine maker is currently shelling out a dividend of $1.82 per share, with a dividend yield of 2.02%. This compares to the Automotive - Internal Combustion Engines industry&#39;s yield of 0.99% and the S&amp;P 500&#39;s yield of 1.56%.
Taking a look at the company&#39;s dividend growth, its current annualized dividend of $7.28 is up 4% from last year. Over the last 5 years, Cummins has increased its dividend 5 times on a year-over-year basis for an average annual increase of 7.49%. Any future dividend growth will depend on both earnings growth and the company&#39;s payout ratio; a payout ratio is the proportion of a firm&#39;s annual earnings per share that it pays out as a dividend. Cummins&#39;s current payout ratio is 34%, meaning it paid out 34% of its trailing 12-month EPS as dividend.
Looking at this fiscal year, CMI expects solid earnings growth. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2025 is $22.54 per share, representing a year-over-year earnings growth rate of 5.47%.
&nbsp;
<h2>Bottom Line</h2>
&nbsp;
Investors like dividends for a variety of different reasons, from tax advantages and decreasing overall portfolio risk to considerably improving stock investing profits. But, not every company offers a quarterly payout.
For instance, it&#39;s a rare occurrence when a tech start-up or big growth business offers their shareholders a dividend. It&#39;s more common to see larger companies with more established profits give out dividends. During periods of rising interest rates, income investors must be mindful that high-yielding stocks tend to struggle. With that in mind, CMI is a compelling investment opportunity. Not only is it a strong dividend play, but the stock currently sits at a Zacks Rank of 3 (Hold).

Are You Looking For A High-Growth Dividend Stock?

The Zacks <a href="https://www.zacks.com/stocks/industry-rank/industry/retail-restaurants-160">Retail &ndash; Restaurants</a> industry is benefiting from increased sales. Rapid menu price hikes, average check growth and expansion efforts act as tailwinds. Industry participants also benefit from partnerships with delivery channels and digital platforms. Stocks like Brinker International, Inc. EAT, BJ&#39;s Restaurants, Inc. BJRI, Kura Sushi USA, Inc. KRUS and El Pollo Loco Holdings, Inc. LOCO are well-poised to benefit from the aforementioned factors. &nbsp; 
&nbsp;
Industry Description
The Zacks Retail &ndash; Restaurants industry comprises several owners and operators of casual, upscale casual, fine dining, full-service and fast-casual restaurants. Some industry participants operate as roasters, marketers and retailers of specialty coffee. Some companies develop, operate and franchise quick-service restaurants worldwide. A few restaurant operators offer cooked-to-order dishes, which include noodles and pasta, soups, salads and appetizers. Some industry players develop, own, operate, manage, and license restaurants and lounges worldwide. A few companies also run technology-enabled Japanese restaurants in the United States and provide Japanese cuisine through a revolving sushi service model.
4 Trends Shaping the Future of the Restaurant Industry
Robust Sales Growth: Restaurant sales continued their strong momentum in January, as consumers remained committed to dining out despite economic uncertainties. According to preliminary data from the U.S. Census Bureau, eating and drinking establishments generated $98.6 billion in seasonally adjusted sales, marking a steady increase from the previous month. This growth extended the sector&#39;s winning streak to 10 consecutive months. Restaurant spending remained notably higher than that a year ago, reflecting the industry&#39;s resilience and the sustained preference for dining experiences.
Digitalization to Drive Growth: Restaurant operators&#39; focus on digital innovation, sales-building initiatives and cost-saving efforts has been a catalyst. With the growing influence of the Internet, digital innovation is the need of the hour. Restaurant operators constantly partner with delivery channels and digital platforms to drive incremental sales. Partnerships with delivery channels like DoorDash, Grubhub, Postmates and Uber Eats, and the rollout of self-service kiosks and loyalty programs continue to drive growth.
Off-Premise Sales Act as Key Catalyst: The industry is gaining from the increase in off-premise sales, which primarily include delivery, takeout, drive-thru, catering, meal kits and off-site options, such as kiosks and food trucks. Most restaurant operators have initiated the testing of ghost or virtual kitchens. The idea of providing off-premise offerings and a connected curbside service has been garnering positive customer feedback.
Traffic Woes &amp; High Costs Linger: The restaurant industry has been facing declining traffic for quite some time. A rapid increase in menu prices is the primary reason behind traffic erosion. This decline highlights the ongoing challenges that the industry faces with maintaining customer counts, especially as consumers grow frustrated with rising prices. Then again, restaurant operators are grappling with the high cost of operations. Intense competition, high wages and food cost inflation are concerning. The industry continues to bear increased expenses, which have been affecting margins. Higher pre-opening costs, marketing expenses and costs related to sales-boosting initiatives are exerting pressure on the company&#39;s margins.
Zacks Industry Rank Indicates Bright Prospects
The Zacks Restaurant industry is grouped within the broader <a href="https://www.zacks.com/stocks/industry-rank/sector/retail-wholesale-3">Retail-Wholesale</a> sector. It carries a Zacks Industry Rank #65, which places it in the top 26% of more than 248 Zacks industries.
The group&#39;s <a href="https://www.zacks.com/zrank/zacks-industry-rank.php">Zacks Industry Rank</a>, which is basically the average of the Zacks Rank of all the member stocks, indicates bright near-term prospects.

The industry&#39;s position in the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries results from a positive earnings outlook for the constituent companies in aggregate.
