MarketGrader.com is a quantitative system that analyzes US and Canadian listed companies. It examines four key aspects of a public company's finances: growth, value, profitability and cash flow. It then assigns a daily score to these areas, based on 24 fundamental indicators, and combines them into an overall score for that company's security. This numerical score is used to generate an overall signal of Buy, Hold or Sell. MarketGrader.com also uses four 'sentiment' indicators which measure factors affecting a security's supply and demand. These indicators are combined into a 'Sentiment score'- Positive, Neutral or Negative - to help investors gauge the desirability of a security regardless of its grade and rating
