The 7 day share price return is 1.1% and the 30 day share price return has slipped 3.0%, while the 1 year total shareholder return of 11.9% contrasts with a much weaker 3 year and 5 year total shareholder return, suggesting recent momentum is improving but long term holders have faced a tougher

How the page works

How to read the score

The score shows direction

It describes the weighted balance of qualifying headlines. A score of 50 can mean balanced news or that there is not enough evidence; the status label explains which.

Confidence is separate

Confidence measures depth, source breadth, direct relevance, freshness and agreement. It does not rise merely because the tone is extreme. This is a rule-based evidence measure, not a calibrated probability.

Price is confirmation

Weekly price response, trend and fair-value position test whether the market is accepting or rejecting the news. They never rewrite the news score.

What the page does

It measures news already published. It is not a forecast, recommendation or price target.

Evidence context
