List against market
How the qualifiers differ The comparison uses the same completed week and selected market. It shows the result of the screen rather than a claim about future returns.
Median relative ranks
Qualifying list and full market
Stored weekly prices
Historical record Past results are hypothetical, before trading costs and based on the stated weekly selection rules. They do not show what an investor would necessarily have received.
Historical record is being prepared The current company list is available now. This section will appear after the stored weekly record has been calculated.
Selection rules
What the screen does Open a company page to see its exact inputs and every other approach it currently passes.
Companies ranked on value against others in the same sector. Valuation levels differ by industry. This screen compares each company with its own sector so a sector-wide valuation difference does not dominate the result.
1 · Market
Start with the selected market The screen uses published weekly company records from the market shown at the top of the page.
2 · Rules
Apply the same tests to every company The named measures, thresholds and sorting order are fixed for the screen.
3 · Check
Open the supporting figures A passing result still needs company, sector, liquidity, accounting and risk research.
Limits of the comparison Scores are relative to the selected market and can change when the market or its data changes. Accounting dates differ. Historical figures may be revised. A screen can remain out of favour for long periods.
Historical results exclude spreads, commissions, market impact, taxes and capacity limits. They are research evidence, not a forecast, recommendation or personal portfolio.
