Value (82): 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.

Volatility (33): The share price moves around a lot.

Size (16): Larger than most of the companies we track — more scrutinised, less often mispriced.
