Strength scores use the full eligible South Korea equity edition, so changing a filter does not change a stockโ€™s score. Returns exclude dividends. Listing country does not establish business exposure.

A transparent ranking

Strong returns, with context

60% ยท Adjusted strength

Three-, six- and twelve-month log returns are divided by weekly volatility scaled to each horizon. Each is ranked within the countryโ€™s complete equity edition, then the three percentile ranks are averaged. Ties share a rank.

20% ยท Horizon agreement

Each of the four returns above +1% contributes five points. The default leader screen requires at least three positive horizons, a three-month return above +1% and a one-month return no lower than โˆ’1%.

20% ยท Path quality

Over thirteen weeks, net log-price progress is divided by total absolute weekly movement. A more direct path scores higher. The leader screen requires at least 35% efficiency; direction is checked separately.

Risk remains visible

Volatility uses the latest 26 weekly log returns, annualised. A 5% floor is used only in the ranking denominator. The displayed volatility is unchanged. Drawdown measures the distance from the 52-week closing high.

Coverage, publication and limitations

These weights are an explicit research ranking, not a fitted prediction, validated strategy or probability of success. Horizons overlap and are not independent evidence. Large returns may still be stretched; low volatility does not guarantee safety. The ranking does not filter for liquidity or company fundamentals.

Active equity listings use saved, complete weekly Momentum Intelligence profiles. Incomplete, inconsistent or non-finite inputs are excluded, never filled with zero. Cross-listings are separate observations; returns are in each listingโ€™s currency and exclude dividends, fees and taxes. Weekly replacements become visible only when complete; the previous edition stays available with its date.
