Analytical Sections

No Opinions. No Noise.
Just Conviction.

NO OPINIONS
Structured scoring. Every rating is the output of a 5-module framework — not an analyst's view.
NO NOISE
Independent research. Every report delivers a scored analytical rating with a price target derived from a 5-method valuation framework — fully transparent methodology.
NO GUESSING
Defined framework. 79.4% directional accuracy across 350 backtested reports. Same system, every time.

Six Valuation Methods.
One Conviction Score.

Every MER report triangulates six independent valuation methodologies into a single proprietary score — then stress-tests it across bull, bear, and sideways regimes. No narratives. No gut calls. Just math and conviction.

This means every stock is evaluated from multiple angles — so you get a single, clear decision. Result: a research-based analytical rating — BUY, HOLD, or SELL — backed by data, not opinion.

Selected Research Calls.

⚠ Important Disclosure Returns shown are measured from the date of MER's BUY or STRONG BUY rating to peak price. These represent selectively highlighted examples — they are not representative of all ratings issued. The full backtest of 350 reports produced a 79.4% directional accuracy rate across three market regimes (Bear 2022, Recovery 2023, Bull 2024). Past performance does not guarantee future results. Subscribers should not expect comparable returns. These figures reflect research accuracy, not actual subscriber trading results, and do not account for transaction costs, taxes, or individual risk tolerance.

The Proof Behind 79.4%.

Most platforms give you opinions. MER gives you an OLS-validated scoring engine with published methodology, walk-forward testing, and regime-specific results.

BACKTEST SCOPE
350
Reports backtested across three distinct market regimes: Bear 2022, Recovery 2023, Bull 2024. Framework was refined between v4.6 (74.3%) and v4.7 (79.4%) — a +5.1pp lift.
MODEL DIAGNOSTICS
OLS
Ordinary least-squares regression: R²=0.363, F=24.25 (p<0.001). All VIF < 2.5 (no multicollinearity). Durbin-Watson = 1.68. Walk-forward validation passing across all three windows.
CONFIDENCE INTERVAL
95%
Monte Carlo simulation CI: [75.1% – 83.7%]. At max conviction (Score 5.0), accuracy reaches 96.5%. The framework gets more accurate when it's most confident.
ALPHA OVER RANDOM BASELINE

Directional accuracy: % of reports where MER rating correctly predicted up/down movement. Past performance does not guarantee future results. OLS R²=0.363 valid for directional classification, not return magnitude forecasting.

Two Analytical
Frameworks.

MER gives you two independently calibrated signals on every stock — a short-term tactical read and a long-term fundamental view. They don’t always agree. That’s the point.

2–4 WEEK HORIZON
Stock Trade Card
Analytical · Short-Term · Framework-Based

The Trade Card reads price action and momentum — not earnings multiples. Built for traders who need to know if a stock shows a valid analytical setup right now: analytical support zone, reference levels, two price targets, and a risk/reward ratio.

Reads: Moving averages, RSI, MACD, VIX regime, market structure
Outputs: Analytical entry zone, invalidation level, Target 1 & 2, Conviction %, R/R ratio
Best for: Swing traders, options plays, analytical setup identification

🏛 MEDIUM–LONG TERM
Fundamental Score Card
Institutional · Fundamental · Conviction-Based

The Scorecard runs the full v4.7 PRO framework — five valuation methods, earnings quality audit, and a bear market stress test. It tells you if a stock is fundamentally worth owning, regardless of what it’s doing this week.

Reads: Revenue growth, P/E vs. sector, Street consensus PT, quality score
Outputs: Quality score, Opportunity score, Rating (Strong Opp → Avoid)
Best for: Long-term investors, fundamental research, conviction-based analytical assessment

Price broke below 50-day ($333) and 200-day ($330) MAs. MACD bearish divergence. VIX elevated at 31+. Entry $310–$320, Stop $335, Targets $285/$260. Conviction 89%.
🏛 Scorecard Signal
BUY — HIGH OPPORTUNITY
Quality 88/100 (Exceptional). Revenue +23.87% YoY. Trading at 36.5% discount to Street PT of $431. AI infrastructure thesis analytically intact. Bear pullback from a fundamentally strong position.

This divergence is working exactly as designed. AVGO is fundamentally strong but technically broken short-term. The Trade Card identified a bearish technical breakdown below key moving averages. The Scorecard found the fundamental thesis analytically intact despite the short-term price decline. Both are correct — they’re just answering different questions.

The Trade Card will be free at launch — 3 runs per day, no signup required. The Score Card is available on paid plans. See both signals on any U.S. ticker and decide which lens fits your strategy.

Built by an Investor.
For Serious Investors.

Maldonado Equity Research was built out of a simple frustration: most retail research is either too superficial to act on, or too expensive to access. MER exists to close that gap.

The v4.7 PRO scoring framework was developed over two years and backtested across 350 real reports spanning bear, bull, and recovery markets. Every rating goes through five independent valuation modules before a conviction score is assigned. The result: 79.4% directional accuracy and +10.0pp alpha above regime-adjusted random baselines — with maximum conviction scores achieving 96.5% accuracy.

No filler. No narratives. Just math, methodology, and conviction.
