In October of 2018, /@thatwhichwas was inspired by a post from /@extraneous to seek out underrated stock picks from the /r/investing community and monitor their performance.
Post-COVID bounce, I wanted to see how these picks have performed, so I've gathered them all here.
A few of these have earnings posting soon, so the ranks may change, but overall it looks like a solid performance by the community. Any new underrated stocks to think about?
If you'd like to participate in the next round, I've opened up a new survey here:

The original post can be found here:
In graphical form here:
Edit: JNUG has been corrected to represent the reverse split (thanks to /@aresden) and subsequent stats have been updated. This has brought the overall gains down from 36% to 33%
Disclaimer: As noted /@joshuastyles, "people who continue to pick their own eventually see losses that are also greater than the market". Please do not interpret gains shown here as an endorsement of the investing prowess of the community
Post-COVID bounce, I wanted to see how these picks have performed, so I've gathered them all here.
A few of these have earnings posting soon, so the ranks may change, but overall it looks like a solid performance by the community. Any new underrated stocks to think about?
Some quick stats:
- Overall average return: ~33% (compared to ~18% for the S&P 500)
- Equal rated return: ~50% (as pointed out by /@bonsaigirl)
- Return on the most upvoted pick: Disney (DIS) 1%
- Highest returning pick: Enphase (ENPH) 1110% (recommended by /@neontetra)
- If you invested in the top 5 most upvoted stocks, you would have seen a 27% return
- If you invested in the top 5 most controversial stocks, you would have seen a 99% return
- The top 10 gainers in order were ENPH, TSLA, APT, DXCM, OKTA, AYX, BAND, ALU, WIX, LRCX
- If you had picked one of these stocks at random, you would have had a ~53% chance of >10% gains and a ~19% chance of >100% gains
If you'd like to participate in the next round, I've opened up a new survey here:
