Advent Software

Advent Software (ADVS) is on this week's IBD 100 list, and it showed up Tuesday on Stocks on the Move. The company makes investment management software for brokers, banks and other financial institutions.• Advent is a small cap, trading 257,000 shares per day. Small caps and mid-caps have been the leaders in this rally that's now two months old.• The stock has an Earnings Per Share Rating of 97. It's shown good earnings growth in the past couple of quarters.• Sales have grown at a healthy rate in the past eight quarters, too.• As with every stock, not everything is perfect: Mutual fund ownership has dropped in recent quarters. We've seen some of that with other stocks lately, as funds sold stocks off in the bear market. You'd like to see fund ownership improving in future quarters.• Also, return on equity is a little lower than ideal. The biggest stock winners usually have ROE of at least 17%.• The Accumulation/Distribution Rating is B+, showing moderate buying in the past 13 weeks.
