How sector ranking works

Every stock Tapeline tracks gets a transparent 0–100 score from a weighted sum of six sub-scores: Trend (25%), Relative Strength (20%), Fundamentals (15%), Smart Money (15%), Macro (15%), and Momentum (10%). A sector's position on this page is the equal-weight average of those scores across all of its scored stocks — a fast read on where strength is currently concentrated.

Frequently asked about stock sectors

Which stock market sectors are strongest right now?

+

The cards above rank all 11 GICS sectors by the average Tapeline composite score of their constituent stocks, refreshed every 5 minutes. The sector at the top has the highest mean score across its scored names — a proxy for where trend, relative strength, and macro tailwinds are currently concentrated.

How is a sector's average score calculated?

+

Each stock gets a 0–100 Tapeline Score from the same 6-factor formula (25% Trend, 20% Relative Strength, 15% Fundamentals, 15% Smart Money, 15% Macro, 10% Momentum). A sector's average is the mean of those scores across every scored ticker mapped to that GICS sector. It's an equal-weight average, not market-cap weighted.

What can I do on each sector page?

+

Every sector links to its own ranking page showing the top-scoring tickers in that sector, a sector-aware methodology note, and an FAQ. From there, each ticker links to its full per-stock page with the 6-factor breakdown and a plain-English explanation of the score.

How often do the sector rankings update?

+

Underlying stock scores re-tick every minute during US market hours. This index and the individual sector pages cache their snapshot for 5 minutes to avoid hammering the API on every search-engine crawl, so figures are at most a few minutes stale.
