Industry  Scores . . .
Every day, WallStreetSignals updates data on over 8.200 Stocks, Indexes and ETFs and submits that data to hundreds of propriety formulas that generates "Scores" for each stock in several categories such as "Timing" "Price Momentum", "Rate of Return", "Volume" and "Fundamentals".
Here we have focused on Individual "Industries". We use the same data and formulas to generate Scores and Rates for each of the 191  Individual Industries and list them for your review with their current TOTAL Score and other data.
                         
Here are today's  "Industry"  Scores based on our Rating and Scoring Formulas. The Highest "Total SCORE" an "Industry" can have is 100% and any Industries with Scores ABOVE 70% are considered Favorable and below 20% to negative Scores are considered Un-Favorable. Also listed are each Industries Rates of Return for the latest 1 Week, 2 Weeks, 30 Days, YTD 2008 and 2007.
