Market backdrop

How in and out are set

Out is the analysts' target. It is the average 12-month price target published by the analysts who cover the stock. A stock needs at least five analysts to be listed.

In leaves a % margin. It is the highest price that still leaves % upside to the out price, and never more than the latest price. If the stock trades above it, the page says to wait for a pullback.

Quality, 50 points. Business quality, growth, financial strength and valuation. This is editorial judgment, not a quantitative model.

Upside, 50 points. One point for each 1% between the latest price and the out price, up to 50. Quality plus upside sets the rank.
