Navigating a Stock Page
Let's take a tour of a ShareValue.ai stock page. Once you know where everything is, you'll be able to analyze any stock in seconds.
The Stock Page Layout
When you search for a stock (like AAPL), you'll see several key sections:
1. Header Section
At the top, you'll find:
| Element | What It Shows |
|---|---|
| Ticker & Name | Company identifier (e.g., AAPL - Apple Inc.) |
| Current Price | Latest stock price |
| Price Change | Today's gain/loss ($ and %) |
| Market Cap | Total company value |
| Sector | Industry classification |
This gives you instant context about what you're looking at.
2. Score Card
The heart of ShareValue.ai—your four pillar scores plus the Final Score:
┌─────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Final Score: 72 │
│ ████████████████████░░░░░░░░░░ │
├─────────────────────────────────────┤
│ Valuation: 68 Quality: 78 │
│ Growth: 71 Health: 75 │
└─────────────────────────────────────┘
Quick interpretation:
- All scores above 60? Generally positive
- One score lagging? Investigate why
- Final Score gives the overall picture
3. Signal & Verdict
Based on the scores, we provide:
| Signal | Meaning |
|---|---|
| BUY | Strong fundamentals, appears undervalued |
| HOLD | Decent fundamentals, fairly valued |
| SELL | Weak fundamentals or overvalued |
Plus verdicts for each pillar (Undervalued, Fair, Overvalued, etc.)
The Dashboard
Think of the stock page like a car dashboard:
- Speedometer (Price) = How fast things are moving
- Fuel gauge (Health) = How much runway you have
- Engine light (Signals) = Warnings to pay attention to
- GPS (Scores) = Are you heading in the right direction?
One glance tells you the car's status. Same with a stock page.
