Short-term Top 10 — Utilities — what changed on 21 Aug 2026
A dated record of one session: what entered or left, what moved inside the ten and by how much, who is closest to the boundary, and how the list did against its benchmark. Each bar is a percentile: how this company ranked against every company the score ranked, 0–100.
The short-term score is a published weighted sum of percentile ranks, rebalanced every Monday. A list is a published formula and its output, not a recommendation. Method version 2.
