Best Greenblatt Magic Formula Stocks in Engineering & Construction for 2026
High earnings yield plus high ROIC: Joel Greenblatt's Magic Formula for market-beating returns.
Engineering and Construction firms convert backlog into revenue on multi-year contracts, so the Growth pillar uses book-to-bill and backlog coverage alongside reported revenue growth. Margin volatility is high, so the Quality pillar averages operating margins over five years; the Health pillar filters out names with cash-conversion gaps.
