Watch this corner for our 'Trade the Ratings' trader throughout the week. We will show you what signals we took from our Ratings feed in Benzinga Pro, why, and how they are working out. For this week, our trades were Safeway SWY, Assurant AIZ and The Blackstone Group BX. See more detail on each of our signals on SWY, AIZ and BX at our regular site. Or, you can get these signals in real time here.

Since March 2012, we have “traded the ratings” based on three simple rules of thumb:

  • Go Long on upgrades to Buy or initiations with Buy
  • Go Short on downgrades with Sell or Initiations with Sell
  • Only pull the trigger when the ‘ratings narrative' supports us doing so
Let us show you more!

Neither Benzinga nor its staff recommend that you buy, sell, or hold any security. We do not offer investment advice, personalized or otherwise. Benzinga recommends that you conduct your own due diligence and consult a certified financial professional for personalized advice about your financial situation.
