Volatility (96): The share price has been relatively steady.

Quality (40): Profits are thin or unreliable for the size of the business, or they are not turning into cash.

Size (12): Larger than most of the companies we track — more scrutinised, less often mispriced.

The rank is the raw material. Whether the rules would actually own Aramark — and when they’d sell — is the membership.
