Frequently asked
What is AlphaDog ONE?
AlphaDog ONE is our proprietary QGARP (Quality Growth at a Reasonable Price) model. It screens ~300 large-cap names each quarter (the top 300 by dollar volume across historical S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 members) for companies with high gross margins (≥45%), consistent revenue growth, positive ROIC, reasonable valuation multiples, and GAAP quality. Each passing company is assigned a conviction score; up to 10 names are weighted proportionally and form the portfolio.
Why only up to 10 picks per quarter?
By design. Concentration is how outperformance compounds. The model uses strict, multi-factor criteria — gross margin, revenue CAGR, ROIC, PSG ratio, and market momentum — so few companies pass all gates simultaneously. A portfolio of 6–10 high-conviction names has historically outperformed bloated "screeners" that return hundreds of results.
How was the 17.5% CAGR figure produced?
The backtest runs from January 1996 to October 2025 (29 years) on a point-in-time ~300 large-cap universe (top 300 by dollar volume across historical S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 members), applying quarterly rebalancing with 5bps slippage per trade. Results are gross of management fees. The universe introduces partial survivorship bias — companies that were delisted during the period are excluded. The 2022 rate-hike drawdown (approximately −26%) is included in the results. This is hypothetical backtested performance, not live trading.
Is this financial advice?
No. AlphaDog is an educational and research tool. The Dog's List is a starting point for your own due diligence — not a recommendation to buy or sell. Always consult a qualified financial adviser before making investment decisions.
How often does the model update?
The quarterly "official" list publishes after each EDGAR earnings season settles (approximately mid-January, mid-April, mid-July, mid-October). Engine subscribers also receive alerts when the model signals a change mid-quarter.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Monthly plans cancel at the end of the billing period. Annual plans are non-refundable but you keep full access until the end of the year.
