The Highest Sharpe Ratio Stocks Within The S&P 500


Updated on September 9th, 2019 by Bob Ciura

The goal of most investors is to either:

  • Maximize returns given a fixed level of risk
  • Minimize risk given a particularly level of desired returns

Perhaps the best metric for analyzing both risk and return is the Sharpe Ratio. With that in mind, we’ve compiled a list of all stocks in the S&P 500 sorted by 5-Year Sharpe Ratio, which you can access below.

The list of S&P 500 stocks sorted by Sharpe Ratio available for download above has the following metrics for each of the constituents of the index:

  • Sharpe Ratio
  • 5-Year Annualized Total Returns
  • Dividend yield
  • Price-to-earnings ratio
  • Market Capitalization
  • 5-Year Beta

You can see a preview of the spreadsheet in the table below:

How To Use The Sharpe Ratios List To Find Compelling Investment Ideas

Having an Excel document with all the S&P 500 stocks sorted by their 5-year Sharpe Ratios can be extremely useful.

The resource becomes even more powerful when combined with a rudimentary knowledge of how to use the filter function of Microsoft Excel to find investment ideas.

With that in mind, this section will show you step-by-step how to implement a particular investing screen using the Sharpe Ratio stocks list. More specifically, we’ll show you how to screen for stocks with 5-year Sharpe Ratios above 1 and forward price-to-earnings ratios below 20.

Step 1: Download the Sharpe Ratio Stocks List by clicking here.

Step 2: Click the filter icon at the top of the Sharpe Ratio column, as shown below.

Sharpe Ratio Stocks Excel Correction

Step 3: Change the filter setting to “Greater Than” and input 1 into the field beside it, as shown below. This filters for S&P 500 stocks with Sharpe Ratios higher than 1.

Step 4: Close out of the filter window (by clicking the exit button, not by clicking the “Clear Filter” button in the bottom right corner). Then, click the filter icon at the top of the price-to-earnings ratio column, as shown below.

Step 5: Change the filter setting to “Less Than” and input 20 into the field beside it, as shown below. This filters for S&P 500 stocks with forward price-to-earnings ratios less than 20.

Sharpe Ratio Stocks Excel Tutorial 4

The remaining stocks in this Excel document are S&P 500 stocks with trailing 5-year Sharpe ratios higher than 1 and forward price-to-earnings ratios less than 20.

You now have a solid fundamental understanding of how to use the Sharpe Ratios list to find investment ideas.

The remainder of this article will provide more information on how to analyze stocks using the Sharpe ratio.

What Is The Sharpe Ratio?

The Sharpe ratio is the financial industry’s favorite measure of risk-adjusted returns. It tells investors whether they are being appropriately rewarded for the risks they’re assuming in their investments.

The Sharpe ratio is calculated with the following formula:

Sharpe Ratio Formula

There are three components to the Sharpe Ratio calculation:

  • Investment return
  • Risk free rate of return
  • Investment standard deviation

Investment return and investment standard deviation are relatively straightforward and require no explanation.

The risk free rate of return can be different depending on your use case. For most investors, a suitable risk free rate of return is the current yield on 10-year U.S. government bonds.

For this article, we have used a risk free rate of 0, as interest rates have declined significantly in recent months.

The Sharpe ratio is rarely calculated by hand in practice. Instead, investors generally use a tool such as Microsoft Excel for the purpose of Sharpe ratio calculations.

How To Manually Calculate Sharpe Ratios Using Yahoo! Finance

At Sure Dividend, we use YCharts for much of our data analytics. YCharts requires a paid subscription that many of our readers do not have. Accordingly, we want to show you how to manually calculate Sharpe Ratio for publicly-traded stocks over a given time period.

More specifically, this tutorial will show you how to calculate a 3-year Sharpe ratio for Apple, Inc (AAPL).

Step 1: Navigate to Yahoo! Finance. Type the ticker of your desired stock into the search bar at the top of the Yahoo! Finance bar. In our case, it’s Apple.

Step 2: Click on historical data, as shown below.

Step 3: Change the dates to the range of your choice, and then click “Apply.” After that, click “Download Data” (which is just below the Apply button).

Step 4: The Excel document that will download as a result of your process so far will have six columns: Open, High, Low, Close, Adjusted Close (or “Adj Close” in the top row of the spreadsheet), and Volume. It’s Adjusted Close that we’re interested in, as this accounts for stock splits and dividend payments.

Using the adjusted close column, calculate the stock’s annualized returns during the time period under investigation. In the example shown below, this is done by dividing the current price by the oldest price and then raising this to the inverse power of the number of years during the sample. The equation is shown below.

Step 5: Next, a time series of daily returns needs to be calculated. This is done in column I in the spreadsheet shown below.

Step 6: Calculate the standard deviation of daily price returns using the STDEV.P() function, and then convert this number to an annualized figure by multiplying by the square root of 252. We use 252 instead of 365 (the number of days in a year) because there are approximately 252 trading days in an average calendar year. The formula to calculate the annualized standard deviation figure is shown below.

Step 7: Use the annualized return and annualized standard deviation data to calculate a Sharpe ratio. An example of how to do this is shown below, using 0% as the risk free rate of return.

The resulting number is the Sharpe ratio of the investment in question. In this case, Apple had a 3-year Sharpe ratio of 0.40 at the time of this writing.
