Financial rankings & currency

How we translate income statement, cash flow and balance sheet lines into U.S. dollars for comparable leaderboards, aligned with IFRS IAS 21 — plus FX sources and limits.

Stock splits

How we derive pre-split price, post-split price and the cumulative multiple in each company stock-split history table, plus data sources and limits.

Split likelihood

How we build the rule-based split-likelihood score: the four mechanical factors and weights, the calibrated price curve, band cutoffs, the timing multiplier, and an honest precision / recall / lift report.

Dividend capture

How we compute dividend capture metrics: gap-recovery formulas, ATR(14), aggregation window, confidence tiers, next ex-date estimation, and known limitations.

Price target calculator

How we project per-ticker bear, base and bull price targets from TTM EPS, analyst consensus and historical P/E. Defaults, data sources and limits.

Smart Consensus weighting

How we compute the accuracy-weighted community consensus: per-user difficulty-adjusted weights, the minimum-history gate, the single-contributor cap, and the privacy threshold.

Beat-the-Street scoring

The exact XP formula: closeness base scaled by a difficulty factor, plus a signed beat-the-Street bonus scaled by consensus confidence, plus an optional calibration bonus — with the floor and cap.

Multi-method fair value

How we combine discounted cash flow, exit multiple, analyst target and the Graham number into a fair-value range and margin of safety — inputs, defaults, and when a method is skipped.

Historical returns heatmap

How we compute monthly, quarterly and yearly returns in the seasonality heatmap: the close-to-close formula, return type by instrument (stocks, indices, crypto, FX, commodities), what we exclude and why.
