Anyone know the best place to pull 5-10 peers for a group of stocks? Such as off of Baseline, Bloomberg, Yahoo, any other websites.
Look in the proxy statement where the Co has to report the performance of the stock over the past 5 years. A lot of Cos benchmark themselves vs a peer group of self identified compititors.

Just be careful if you use the proxy… depending on where you are looking sometimes the comps are not comps to the underlying business a company might be a comp if it has a similar mkt cap/revenues/income. Sometimes a compensation committee will list “comparable” companies for example. If you are looking for comps to the business just be sure to figure out how similar they really are. Id check the company’s website for an investor day kit or recent presentation
On baseline you can group reports by industry within sector. This gives a good idea of who else is in the space, some of which may be their main competitors and others not so much…I upload a Russell2k ticker list or something and then create a report, then do format options…
factset, hoovers, google, yahoo, cap iq, bloomberg, reuters knowledge, baseline, sec filings, etc
