Plus, payout ratios, dividend histories, and growth rates. We’ll also interview notable fund managers on how you should build your portfolio.

The Big Picture is Bigger and Better!
IBD’s most widely read column gets room to grow on a new page B1. In its larger space, The Big Picture will provide you with a more in-depth daily briefing on market direction and trends. Plus, objective analysis on the price action of even more leading stocks.
Online Resources: Did you know that our market editors also report on current market action throughout the trading day? It’s the top story on the home page of Investors.com.
NYSE and Nasdaq Stocks On The Move™ Side-by-Side!
IBD’s one-of-a-kind daily screens list stocks trading in much higher than normal volume, indicating institutional buying. This helps you spot leaders you won’t find on standard most active lists appearing in other newspapers. Stocks On The Move also shows you stocks that are down in higher than average volume, a sign of weakness and possible further price declines.
Online Resources: Our intraday version of this screen is on the homepage of Investors.com and updated every two minutes during trading hours!
Stocks Just Out Of BasesStocks In Bases
These exclusive IBD features use an advanced screening process to select high quality, liquid equities.
With Stocks Just Out Of Bases, we show you quality stocks that have recently broken out, but are still within 10% of their chart’s base.
With Stocks In Bases, you’ll see stocks that have been in the process of forming bases for at least five weeks.
NOTE: “Bases” represent periods of consolidation where stocks tend to set the stage for powerful breakouts and price run-ups.
