How Stock " SCORES " are Calculated . . .

Step # 1

Columns of Data in Stock Lists

Every day, we download hundreds of data points for every stock in our database of stocks on the NYSE, ASE, NASDAQ, Bulletin Board, Pink Sheets and Indexes.

Step # 2

All the data is submitted to hundreds of propriety formulas that calculate Rates, Scores and Rankings for each Stock, ETF and Index in several Fundamental and Technical areas.

Step # 3

Next, the Rates, Scores and Rankings are weighted and then combined to create a Total " SCORE " for each individual Stock. The highest Total " SCORE " is 100%.

Step # 4

And finally, the Stocks are sorted into several different Stock LISTS for the visitor to view. Stocks can be viewed by selecting to view the (a). " 50 Highest SCORING Stocks "; (b). " All the Stocks in Specific Industries"; (c). " Highest SCORING ETFs "; (d). " All the Stocks from a Foreign Country " as well as allowing the visitor to enter the Stocks he owns or is interested in, to view their current " SCORES ".

Each Stock LIST has over 30 columns of Fundamental and Technical Data for each stock including the stock's Industry, Recent Price, Volume, Calculated Value vs. Current Price, Return for latest day, week, month and YTD, Latest Earning Forecast vs. 1 year ago and last quarter, the stock's P/E Ratio, Earnings Growth Rate, Sales Growth Rate, Current Price vs. 5, 10, 20, 100 and 200 Day Moving Average, Current Volume vs. 5, 10, and 20 Day Moving Average and Dividend Amount and Yield. The Stock's Current " SCORE " and Rank is also listed and used to sort the Stock LISTS.
