AAPL Stock Performance Metrics

Stock Target Advisor calculates market performance metrics, such as capital gain and volatility, of all the stocks in our database on a daily basis and then compares and ranks the metrics against those of other stocks in the same industries and exchanges. This allows our users to quickly determine how a stock is performing against its peers.

	Value	Sector Median	Percentile Rank	Grade	Market Median	Percentile Rank	Grade
	Market Performance vs. Industry/Classification (Consumer Electronics)				Market Performance vs. Exchange

How do we grade Apple Inc (AAPL's) market performance?

Financial ratios do not impart much information on their own unless they are compared against the ratios of similar stocks. Every day we run millions of calculations to determine the pertinent ratios for each stock, and then we rank the stock against the stocks in the same exchange and sector for each ratio and assign a grade based on the percentile ranking based on the table below. Stock Target Advisor’s users can quickly determine where their favourite stocks stand by looking at their grades for key ratios.

Grade	Percentile	Grade	Percentile	Grade	Percentile
A+	97%-100%	A	93%-96%	A-	90%-92%
B+	87%-89%	B	83%-86%	B-	80%-82%
C+	77%-79%	C	73%-76%	C-	70%-72%
D+	67%-69%	D	63%-66%	D-	60%-62%
