Buy These 3 Top-Ranked Stocks with Upgraded Broker Ratings

The macroeconomic environment continues to be highly uncertain. Amid such a situation, it is difficult for individual investors to pick stocks independently and generate robust returns. For this, one has to understand the fundamentals of every company and try to place them against the present economic background to figure out how it may fare as an investment.

One way to cut short this task is to follow the broker's recommendation. In this regard, stocks like TripAdvisor Inc., Oracle Corp. and The Trade Desk, Inc. are worth a look.

As brokers directly communicate with the top management, they have a better insight into what is happening in a particular company. They evaluate companies' publicly available documents and even attend conference calls.

Brokers have more understanding of the overall sector and industry. They place company fundamentals against the current economic backdrop to determine how a particular stock will fare as an investment.

When brokers upgrade a stock, one can easily rely on their judgment. However, depending on broker upgrades is not the correct way to build your investment portfolio. Several other factors should be taken into account to ensure steady returns.

Here are three of the four stocks that qualified for the screening:
