About Our Stock Ranking System

At Magnifina, we strive to provide our readers with informative and engaging content to help them navigate the complex world of investing. In our stock spotlight series of articles, we utilize a proprietary ranking system to evaluate stocks based on three key factors: Value, Growth, and Stability. This article aims to explain our methodology and how to interpret the rankings.

Please note that the information provided in our stock articles is for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice. We do not provide personalized investment recommendations online or without a formal advisory agreement.

Our Ranking Methodology

Our experienced team of analysts has developed a robust ranking system that assesses stocks across a comprehensive set of metrics. These metrics include traditional valuation ratios such as P/E ratio and dividend yield, as well as growth indicators like earnings growth. We also incorporate proprietary measures to provide a well-rounded perspective on each stock’s potential.

Value Factor

The Value factor evaluates a stock’s attractiveness based on its intrinsic worth relative to its current market price. We consider metrics like P/E ratio, which compares a company’s stock price to its earnings per share, and dividend yield, which measures the income return to shareholders. Stocks with lower P/E ratios and higher dividend yields tend to score higher on the Value factor.

Growth Factor

The Growth factor assesses a stock’s potential for future price appreciation based on its historical and projected growth in earnings. We look at this data aiming to gauge a company’s ability to consistently increase its profits over time. Stocks with higher and more predicted growth rates generally rank higher on the Growth factor.

Stability Factor

The Stability factor is designed to identify stocks that exhibit a more consistent and predictable performance over time. By evaluating a proprietary set of metrics, we aim to uncover companies that demonstrate lower volatility, more price stability, and greater financial predictability relative to their peers.

Visualizing the Rankings

To present our rankings in a clear and intuitive manner, we create a visual representation called a Histogram for each factor. A histogram shows how the scores for Value, Growth, and Stability are spread out across our core universe of stocks.

In our stock spotlight articles, you will find three graphs, one for each factor. The stock being analyzed is highlighted on each graph, allowing you to quickly grasp its relative position compared to other stocks. Stocks positioned further to the right on the histogram are considered more attractive for that particular factor.

Scope and Limitations

Our ranking system is specifically designed for our stock spotlight articles and should be used in conjunction with other quantitative and qualitative information. Although we use may some of underlying variables to provide investment advice, we do not use the ranking system as presented here to determine whether to buy or sell any stock.

While the rankings may provide valuable comparative insights, they should not be considered a complete investment approach on their own. Investors should conduct thorough due diligence, consider their individual financial goals, risk tolerance, and consult with a qualified financial advisor before making any investment decisions.

Conclusion

Our proprietary stock ranking system offers a unique perspective on stocks based on Value, Growth, and Stability factors. By presenting rankings as percentiles and visualizing the distributions, we aim to provide our readers with a clear and accessible way to evaluate a stock’s relative attractiveness. However, these rankings should be considered as part of a comprehensive investment research process and not be relied upon in isolation.

We encourage our readers to explore our stock spotlight articles to gain insights and ideas, but always remember to conduct their own research and consult with a financial professional before making investment choices.
