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:

ElementWhat It Shows
Ticker & NameCompany identifier (e.g., AAPL - Apple Inc.)
Current PriceLatest stock price

SectorIndustry 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

SignalMeaning
BUYStrong fundamentals, appears undervalued
HOLDDecent fundamentals, fairly valued

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.
