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.
