How to read the ranks

Safety - relates to the amount of debt a company has. Green is low debt level; red is high debt level.

Why popular stocks have low ratings

It’s easier said than done. When your stock drops, it’s easy to want to sell it and find a better performer. Think twice, or even three times, before trading. Those fees (especially the hidden ones) can eat up your gains.
