Week of 23 Oct to 30 Oct 2026: biggest score moves in the S&P 100 and Nifty 50
Quantooo Lab ยท 2026-11-01
Every week we look back at how the scores moved. Each score summarises five parts of a stock's data (trend, stability, fundamentals, market backdrop and news tone; four parts for India) compared with the other stocks that day. A big change means the data changed, not that the price will follow. Our own tests found the scores have no reliable ability to rank stocks by future returns.

Do the biggest score rises tell you which stocks will go up?
No. A rising score means a stock's recent data looks better than before compared with its peers. In our tests, rankings like these did not reliably predict next-month returns, and on the final test year the score was slightly backwards. Read these lists as a summary of what changed in the data this week.
Every stock page shows the full calculation, and the live portfolios show how rule-based portfolios built on these scores are doing against their benchmarks, week by week.
