Value (93): The shares cost little relative to the profits and assets behind them — which can mean the market is too gloomy, or that the business really is in trouble.

Momentum (74): The shares have been drifting down relative to others.

Size (44): Larger than most of the companies we track — more scrutinised, less often mispriced.
