Questions
How is the score built?
The Top 10 score is a published weighted sum of percentile ranks, rebalanced on the first trading day of each month. A list is a published formula and its output, not a recommendation. Method version 4. Each bar is a percentile: how this company ranked against every company the score ranked, 0–100.
How often does this list change?
Members are rebalanced on the first trading day of each month. Scores are recomputed nightly, but membership only changes at a scheduled rebalance, or immediately if a company stops being eligible. A member is held while it stays inside the top 15, so a small move in rank does not force a change.
What score does a company need to be in this list?
The cutoff today is 76.0 across 1386 ranked covered companies. #11 (INCY) is 0.1 below it. A member leaves only if it falls past #15 — 73.7 today.
Why did AU leave the list?
Left 1 Oct 2026: score 72.0, rank 24 (not compared with 1 Sep 2026 — those rows were scored under method version 3, this pass under 4, and the formula changed between them, so a score is only comparable within one version) (a member leaves above rank 15).
