Since February 2025, the CAN SLIM model incorporating the Volume Price Confirmation Indicator (VPCI) has gained 48%, outperforming the S&P 500’s 33% return over the same period. Using a model portfolio of $400,000, both the Simplified CAN SLIM and Graham portfolios have delivered comparable results, demonstrating consistent outperformance relative to the benchmark. This indicates that the CAN SLIM framework—whether in its full or simplified form—along with the Graham-based value portfolio, continues to generate strong alpha and validate their underlying selection criteria in varying market conditions.

AS SEEN IN:
Hi, I’m Matt Lutey. I am on a mission to bridge the gap between academic and Wall Street / Practitioner finance.
Since 2019, I’ve taught undergraduate and MBA-level finance courses at multiple universities, covering corporate finance, investments, valuation, and two student-managed investment fund programs. My goal is to bridge the gap between academic theory and practical finance—helping students think like practitioners while grounding real-world decision-making in research-based principles.
 What would you do if you knew which stocks were about to rise—before they did?
In my classes, we explore that question through hands-on projects that replicate the methodologies of the world’s most successful investors. Students learn to build and test portfolios based on proven frameworks and to identify the characteristics that stocks often display before making major upward moves.
 This website serves as an intersection between practical finance and academic research. It’s built for those who’ve ever read a finance paper and thought, “How can I rebuild that study—and capture the benefits of running it in real time?”
 Here, you’ll find insights on how to:
- Identify which stocks are most likely to outperform (or which options to buy before they rise).
- Preserve wealth while achieving higher returns with lower risk than the overall market.
- Recreate and follow research-backed portfolio strategies with transparent, real-time results.
My research and teaching are dedicated to answering these questions—and this platform provides the tools, data, and frameworks to put them into practice
INTRODUCING
Famous Investor Portfolios
CAN SLIM Research
The CAN SLIM, Warren Buffet, Benjamin Graham, Joel Greenblatt and new Simplified CAN SLIM and Volume Price Confirmation Indicator (VPCI) portfolios outperform the SP500 since 1999. You can follow the portfolios in real time here and on the "Dr Lutey Research" Android and IOS application.Â
For more advanced portfolios, follow them with proven technical analysis methods. You can sign up to learn the methods and then apply them using options and futures to the portfolios.Â
Capital Weighted Volume
The famous investor portfolios (with Capital Weighted Volume 'CWV') have proven to beat the Sp500 since 1999 and offer higher return (more than double the Sp500 average return) with lower risk and lower maximum drawdown. This is a hard combination to achieve. You can follow them here for high net worth and practitioner (professional) financial planners (FPs).
