Long-term Top 10 — Communication Services — history

Every change to this list, with the reason recorded at the time. One rebalance so far — this page grows with the record.

The long-term 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. These rows span method versions 1 and 2 — the formula changed between them, so a score is only comparable within one version.
