Macroeconomic context
Highly sensitive to interest rates (valued on future cash flows): rate cuts and falling bond yields help it. It depends on the corporate investment cycle (AI/cloud capex), the semiconductor supply chain (Taiwan/China) and the dollar (foreign revenue). As a US company, its valuation depends on the Fed, 10-year Treasury yields and the US earnings cycle.
How the score is calculated
The score combines profitability (ROE, ROA, net margin), growth (revenue and earnings), valuation (P/E, EV/EBITDA, free cash flow), financial strength (debt and liquidity; not applied to banks and insurers) and momentum (6 and 12-month returns and trend). It is an educational quantitative filter, not a buy or sell recommendation.
