ORTEX Stock Scores: the whole S&P 500, ranked every day.

One score per stock, zero to one hundred, refreshed daily. It combines ORTEX short-interest data, momentum and value rankings, analyst and sentiment moves, fundamentals and technicals: hundreds of data points, weighted by ORTEX’s own scoring. It is the view a quant desk builds in-house, ready to screen, sort and download.

What the score has done since 2010

Two long-only S&P 500 strategies picked purely by the score, rebalanced monthly, turned $1,000 into $24,596 (Short Momentum) and $16,358 (Balanced) in a 16.3-year historical simulation, against $8,642 for the S&P 500 Total Return Index. Both beat the index on risk-adjusted terms too: Sharpe ratios of 1.12 and 1.14 against 0.90, and the Balanced strategy came through 2020 with a smaller maximum drawdown than the index itself.

Historical backtest, gross of costs. Sharpe vs a ~1.6% 3M T-bill. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results.

Stock scores and peers

Value, quality, momentum and growth for 47,000 companies, scored daily, plus the peers they really trade with.

Alongside them, ORTEX peer groups rank each stock's closest peers by how they actually trade, not just by sector code.
