Percentile across ~4,600 US stocks on Ticker Nerd’s systematic factor model. Higher is better. How the model is built and tested
Quality (99): The business earns solid, repeatable profits on what it owns.
Accruals (29): A large share of reported profit has not shown up as cash, or the balance sheet is expanding quickly — both tend to unwind.
Size (17): Larger than most of the companies we track — more scrutinised, less often mispriced.
