DECISION FRAMEWORK

Using Upturn to Explore Investment Decisions

Upturn brings stock and ETF ratings, daily advisories, and a historical advisory record together to help you research potential investments. These tools provide information to consider alongside your investment objectives, risk tolerance, and existing holdings.

Screening Starting Point

Which stocks and ETFs could I explore?

Consider starting your research with assets rated 3 stars or above, with a preference for those rated 4 stars or higher. Then review their current advisories and supporting information.

Risk Awareness

Which assets may warrant greater caution?

Assets rated 2 stars or below have weaker evidence under Upturn’s methodology. Review the factors behind their ratings before considering an investment.

Signal Conviction

What could help me evaluate a potential purchase?

A recent STRONG BUY advisory may be one factor to consider alongside the Star Rating, price behavior, and company or ETF characteristics.

Portfolio Maintenance

What could prompt me to review an existing holding?

A SELL advisory may signal a change in Upturn’s assessment. Consider reviewing the holding in the context of your investment strategy and circumstances.

Timing Perspective

How does advisory recency matter?

Check when an advisory was issued. Advisories from the past seven days can be a starting point for reviewing recent signals; recency alone does not establish a suitable time to trade.

Historical Record

How can I evaluate the context behind an advisory?

Inspect the stock or ETF’s historical BUY and SELL advisories, including profitable and loss-making simulated outcomes, the periods covered, and the simulation assumptions.

Comprehensive Depth

What else could inform my decision?

Explore AI-enabled SWOT analysis, company fundamentals, ETF characteristics, Price Path, and Price Stability for additional context.

Multi-Condition Search

Can I combine several criteria in a search?

Try questions such as: “Find profitable AI stocks with stable price movement and active BUY advisories.” Review the interpreted filters to confirm they reflect your intended search.

IMPORTANT NOTICE & DISCLOSURES

Keep in Mind

Ratings and advisories do not guarantee investment outcomes or establish suitability for every investor. Historical and simulated performance does not guarantee future results, actual results may differ, and investing involves the risk of loss. Review Upturn’s Disclosures for full methodology, assumptions, and limitations.

Key Elements of the Chart

  • Stock Price: The price shown ($229.86) is delayed by 24 hours, reflecting the last market close.
  • Upturn Star Rating: Apple’s 3-star Upturn Star Rating reflects mixed or moderate historical advisory and simulated performance, with underlying factors requiring review. A three-star rating indicates moderate historical confidence rather than establishing stability or benchmark-equivalent returns. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
  • Current Advisory:PASS indicates insufficient support for a new BUY advisory; it is distinct from a SELL advisory. For prospective investors, skip this stock for now and wait for clearer upside momentum; for existing holders, it signifies avoiding adding new capital rather than an active exit directive.
    Other possible advisories include:
    • STRONG BUY / BUY / WEAK BUY – graded confidence in buying
    • SELL – indicates an algorithmic exit signal based on historical risk-adjusted criteria.
  • BUY & SELL Dots Explained
    • Blue Dots = BUY Signals – Upturn advised buying.
    • Green Dots = SELL with Profit – Selling would have earned a gain.
    • Red Dots = SELL with Loss – Selling would have resulted in a loss.

    Each BUY–SELL cycle is explicitly simulated and tracked to show how Upturn’s signals would have performed based on simulations.

  • Profit & Loss Bars
    • Blue Bars = Profit – When simulated trade made money.
    • Orange Bars = Loss – When simulated trade would’ve lost money.

    The percentage label above each bar shows exactly how much the simulated trade gained or lost during that completed advisory cycle.

  • Time Range & Trend Analysis
    • Shows price movement over time with simulated trades overlaid.
    • Switch between ALL, YEAR, MONTH, or WEEK views to spot trends and cycle timing.
Investors are advised to consult the Disclosures section for full methodology, assumptions, and limitations regarding these simulations. While the simulations aim for directional accuracy, actual returns may vary due to market conditions and execution factors.

Daily BUY / SELL Advisory Change Notifications

Never miss an emerging momentum shift or model exit signal. Whenever an asset on your Watchlist or within your Robo-Portfolios changes advisory status (such as upgrading from PASS to BUY or shifting from BUY to SELL), Upturn issues timely notifications following market close.

  • Timely Signal Alerts: Receive alerts when a favored stock receives a fresh BUY or STRONG BUY signal under model conditions.
  • Risk Mitigation Alerts: Prompt notifications when technical or fundamental deterioration triggers a SELL signal, supporting disciplined exit planning.
  • Granular User Controls: Toggle notifications on or off per portfolio or individual watchlist item directly from your settings.

What do Upturn Advisories Mean?

A BUY advisory means the stock or ETF appears to be trending upward, based on Upturn's AI/ML and quantitative analysis.

STRONG BUY

Many strong signals point to an uptrend. Highest-conviction bullish momentum signals; indicates strong upward trend momentum.

REGULAR BUY

Moderate signals suggest a likely uptrend. Moderate upward momentum signals; signal strength is positive, especially if the BUY advisory is recent (e.g., within the last 20 days).

WEAK BUY

Mild signals indicate a possible uptrend. May not be ideal; could shift to SELL anytime.

PASS

PASS indicates insufficient support for a new BUY advisory; it is distinct from a SELL advisory. Suggests skipping new purchases until clearer upside signals emerge.

SELL

Growth signals fade and upward momentum stops. Signal to exit if holding.

Upturn Star Rating for Stocks and ETFs

A 1-to-5 star summary rating based on evaluating Upturn's historical accuracy and key ETF/stock characteristics.

Step 1: Advisory Performance

The rating first evaluates how consistently Upturn’s historical BUY and SELL advisories produced profitable simulated outcomes.

  • Advisory Success Rate: How often completed Upturn advisory cycles resulted in simulated profits.
  • Advisory Consistency: Whether profitable outcomes were produced consistently rather than by only a few successful advisories.

A stronger history of successful advisory outcomes provides a stronger starting point for the rating.

Step 2: Stock Performance

Upturn then measures the simulated investment results produced by following its historical advisories.

  • Realized Performance: Cumulative simulated profit or loss from completed BUY and SELL advisory cycles.
  • Unrealized Performance: Simulated profit or loss associated with the currently open advisory cycle.
  • Overall Performance Quality: The strength of the historical simulated return produced across advisory cycles.

Together, Advisory Performance and Stock Performance establish the initial Upturn Star Rating.

Step 3: Trading Volume

Upturn considers the stock’s or ETF’s average trading volume because liquidity affects how easily investors can buy or sell an investment.

  • Higher trading volume: Supports the existing rating (leaves rating unchanged).
  • Moderate trading volume: May reduce the rating by one star.
  • Low trading volume: May reduce the rating by two stars.

This liquidity adjustment helps prevent a security with strong simulated results but limited tradability from receiving the same rating as a more actively traded investment.

Step 4: Price Path

Evaluates the direction and persistence of the investment’s closing price over approximately the last three market quarters.

Hockey-Stick GrowthAccelerating (+1★)
Strong UptrendUpward (+1★, capped 5★)
Steady UptrendRising gradually
Flat / Range-BoundNarrow range

Hockey-Stick Growth may increase the rating by one star; qualifying Strong Uptrend increases by one star (capped at 5★). Other classifications provide context without directly changing the rating.

Step 5: Price Stability

Price Stability measures how smoothly or erratically the investment moved along its Price Path during the same three-quarter period.

  • Normal fluctuations: Do not affect the rating.
  • Highly Choppy: Frequent large swings in both directions may reduce the rating by one star.
  • Extreme Price Shocks: Sudden, unusually large jumps or drops may reduce the rating by two stars.

Price Path and Price Stability are independent. For example, an investment can have a Strong Uptrend while also being Highly Choppy.

Step 6: Company Fundamentals

For individual stocks, Upturn applies a final company-fundamentals review based on three areas:

  • Financial Health: The company’s financial strength and stability, including balance-sheet and cash-flow considerations.
  • Growth Momentum: The consistency and sustainability of business growth.
  • Ownership: The level of confidence indicated by insider and institutional ownership.
  • Adequate or strong fundamentals: Do not change the rating.
  • 2-star Company Fundamentals: May reduce the Upturn Star Rating by one star.
  • 1-star Company Fundamentals: May reduce the Upturn Star Rating by two stars.

Company Fundamentals are not applied to ETFs because an ETF represents a portfolio of securities rather than a single operating company.

How the Final Rating Is Determined

The rating is calculated in the following order:

Advisory Performance + Stock Performance → Trading Volume → Price Path → Price Stability → Company Fundamentals

The final result is strictly limited to an explicit minimum of 1 star and maximum of 5 stars.

Worked Adjustment Example:

  1. A stock begins with a 4-star rating based on historical advisory and simulated stock performance.
  2. High trading volume leaves the rating unchanged.
  3. Hockey-Stick Growth adds one star (moves to 5★).
  4. Smooth price behavior causes no adjustment.
  5. Strong company fundamentals cause no adjustment.
  6. The final rating is 5 stars.

Another stock may begin with a 5-star rating but receive reductions for low trading volume, Highly Choppy price behavior, or weak company fundamentals (2★ or 1★ fundamentals).

ETF Calculation Sequence:

For ETFs, the rating uses the same core sequence, excluding Company Fundamentals:

Advisory Performance + ETF Performance → Trading Volume → Price Path → Price Stability

Company Fundamentals are not applied to ETFs. Final rating bounded to 1–5 stars.

Historical and simulated results do not guarantee future performance. Upturn Star Ratings and advisories are generated using Upturn’s methodology and should be reviewed together with applicable Disclosures for full methodology, assumptions, and limitations.

METHODOLOGY STEPS 4 & 5

Price Path & Price Stability Classifications

Price Path evaluates closing price direction and persistence over approximately the last three market quarters. Price Stability measures how smoothly or erratically the investment moved along its Price Path during the same three-quarter period.

Step 4: Price Path

Price Path evaluates the direction and persistence of the investment’s closing price over approximately the last three market quarters.

The classifications include:

Steep Decline
Steep Decline Chart Pattern

Hockey-Stick Growth: The stock’s price growth is accelerating, with recent gains substantially stronger than its earlier trend. This can indicate powerful momentum, but rapid increases may also bring higher pullback risk. A qualifying Hockey-Stick Growth pattern may increase the rating by one star (+1★).

Strong Uptrend: The stock has appreciated substantially while maintaining a clear upward direction. Periodic pullbacks may occur, but buyers have consistently regained control. A qualifying Strong Uptrend increases the star rating by one star (+1★, capped at 5 stars).

Steady Uptrend: The stock is rising gradually and consistently without extreme acceleration. Its smoother price path may indicate more stable and sustainable momentum.

Flat / Range-Bound: The stock has moved within a relatively narrow price range without a clear upward or downward direction. A meaningful breakout or breakdown may be needed to establish its next trend.

Rolling Over: The stock previously moved higher but has begun losing momentum and turning downward. This may signal a temporary pullback or the early stage of a broader decline.

Downtrend: The stock has been declining consistently, with lower prices developing over time. Occasional rallies have not yet been strong enough to reverse the broader downward direction.

Steep Decline: The stock’s price is falling rapidly, with recent losses accelerating beyond its earlier trend. This indicates significant selling pressure and elevated downside risk.

Most normal price fluctuations do not affect the rating. However:

  • Hockey-Stick Growth pattern may increase the rating by one star (+1★).
  • Strong Uptrend increases the star rating by one star (+1★, capped at 5 stars).
  • Other Price Path classifications provide useful context but do not directly change the rating.

Step 5: Price Stability

Price Stability measures how smoothly or erratically the investment moved along its Price Path during the same three-quarter period.

The classifications include:

Very Smooth

Moderately Choppy

Very Smooth: The stock moves in a highly orderly manner with minimal day-to-day price disruption. Its direction is consistent, with few meaningful reversals or sudden moves.

Smooth: The stock follows a generally orderly path with only modest fluctuations. Short-term pullbacks occur but rarely disrupt its broader direction.

Moderately Choppy: The stock experiences noticeable price swings and periodic reversals while maintaining some directional structure. Investors should expect occasional volatility along its broader path.

Choppy: The stock changes direction frequently and experiences pronounced short-term swings. Its near-term movement may be less predictable even when a broader trend exists.

Highly Choppy: The stock experiences frequent, large price swings in both directions. Rapid reversals can increase timing risk and make its broader direction difficult to follow.

Extreme Price Shocks: The stock has experienced sudden and unusually large jumps or drops relative to its normal movement. These shocks may reflect major events and indicate substantially elevated price risk.

Most normal price fluctuations do not affect the rating. However:

  • Highly Choppy price behavior may reduce the rating by one star (-1★).
  • Extreme Price Shocks may reduce the rating by two stars (-2★).

This adjustment recognizes that repeated large price swings can increase investment and timing risk, even when the broader Price Path is positive.

Important Independence: Price Path and Price Stability are completely independent. For example, an investment can have a Strong Uptrend while also being Highly Choppy.

ANALYST PERSPECTIVE

Upturn’s Analyst Coverage Star Rating

While Upturn’s AI analyzes data and history, Analyst Perspective summarizes Wall Street sentiment — the human-intelligence layer with industry access and market context.

Upturn Analyst Coverage Star Rating
★Wall Street Sentiment · 46 Active Recommendations (60+ Tracked Firms)

How the Analyst Rating is Built

A balanced assessment of confidence and consensus — not a simple average:

Analyst Coverage (Confidence)

  • Broad / High Consensus (30+ analysts): Blue-chip visibility and trusted institutional coverage pool
  • Established Institutional (20–29 analysts): Substantial institutional following with frequent consensus revisions
  • Moderate / Growing (10–19 analysts): Mid-to-large-cap visibility capturing expanding Wall Street attention
  • Emerging (5–9 analysts): Developing institutional coverage with fewer independent estimates
  • Low / Early-Stage (under 5 analysts): Niche, micro-cap, or newly public — higher forecast variance

Rating Distribution (Consensus)

  • Balance of Buy, Hold, and Sell recommendations
  • High score when most analysts agree on potential

Price Target Upside (Growth Gap)

  • Strong potential when average target is ~20%+ above current price
  • Lower score when price is already near “fair value”

Reading the 1-Year Price Target Chart

Target Price vs. 52-Week Range
1
Target PriceThe average “destination” analysts expect in one year.
2
The 52-Week Range (High/Low)Provides context on how volatile the stock has been over the past year.
3
Current PriceShows you exactly how much “room to run” is left before hitting the average analyst forecast.

By comparing these, you can quickly see whether the stock has room to grow (if the target price is well above the current price) or if it may already be close to its fair value range.

Analyst Trends (Strong Buy to Strong Sell)

On the right, you can see how many analysts recommend each action:

20 Strong Buy, 7 Buy, and 16 HoldShowing most analysts are optimistic.
1 Sell and 2 Strong SellVery few negative recommendations.

Putting It All Together

Combining these details gives you a fast, high-level snapshot:

  1. Is the stock trading below its 1-year target price?
  2. Where is the current price compared to the lowest and highest price seen in the last year?
  3. Do analysts mostly see upside, downside, or stability ahead?

If the target price is higher than the current price, the stock is closer to its 52-week high than its low, and most analysts rate it a Strong Buy, this suggests strong market interest and a positive outlook — but always remember: it’s a forecast, not a guarantee.

Star Rating for Robo-Portfolios

ROBO STAR RATINGS

Upturn Star Rating for Robo-Portfolios

The Upturn Star Rating for Robo-Portfolios indicates the overall investment potential based on historical advisory performance of a portfolio, based on a hypothetical investment strategy that follows Upturn’s BUY and SELL advisories.

The rating is derived from the collective performance of individual stocks or ETFs in the portfolio over a selected time period — past two years, one year, one quarter, or one month — combining both cumulative returns and risk-adjusted performance (Sharpe ratio) to offer a comprehensive view of portfolio quality.

How Upturn Calculates Star Ratings for Robo-Portfolios

1. Cumulative Return

Measures how well the portfolio would have performed if an investor had followed Upturn’s historical advisories in the given time.

2. Sharpe Ratio

Captures the risk-adjusted return — measures how much return a portfolio generates relative to the amount of risk taken, helping assess the quality of returns after accounting for volatility.

The Robo-Portfolio Star Rating is calculated on a portfolio simulation evaluated over the trailing two-year window. (While users can independently view 1Y, 1Q, or 1M performance horizons in the interactive chart, star ratings are always benchmarked against the 2-year simulation horizon). Portfolios are rated from 5 stars to 1 star based on the thresholds below:

Understanding Robo-Portfolio Star Ratings

5★5 Stars (Outstanding)

Ending investment multiple of 2.0x or higher (+100.0% or greater cumulative return from a 1.0 base) and a Sharpe ratio of at least 1.75 over the 2-year simulation horizon. Demonstrates strong historical returns combined with efficient risk-adjusted performance.

4★4 Star Rating (Above Average)

Ending investment multiple of at least 1.5x (+50.0% or greater cumulative return from a 1.0 base) and a Sharpe ratio of 1.50 or higher over the 2-year horizon. Demonstrates solid historical outcomes with favorable risk-return characteristics.

3★3 Star Rating (Moderate)

Ending investment multiple of at least 1.0x (cumulative return ≥ 0.0% / breakeven or better from a 1.0 base) and a Sharpe ratio of 1.00 or higher over the 2-year horizon. Generally aligns with moderate historical results and balanced risk-adjusted performance.

2★2 Star Rating (Below Average)

Ending investment multiple of at least 0.75x (cumulative return of −25.0% or better from a 1.0 base) and a Sharpe ratio of at least 0.75 over the 2-year horizon. Portfolios can receive a 2-star rating due to weaker cumulative returns or because an inefficient Sharpe ratio reflects excessive risk volatility even when returns are positive.

1★1 Star Rating (Not Recommended)

Portfolios failing to meet minimum quality thresholds — either an ending investment multiple below 0.75x (cumulative loss worse than −25.0%), or a Sharpe ratio below 0.75 reflecting subpar risk-adjusted efficiency regardless of whether raw return is positive.

⚠️ Important Note: Upturn Star Ratings for stocks and ETFs, or Robo-Portfolios reflect overall investment potential based on historical performance and, for Robo-Portfolios, favorable risk-adjusted returns. However, a higher rating does not guarantee higher future returns, and a lower rating does not imply poor future performance. Past results show the potential but are not a guarantee of future outcomes.
