Rankings evaluate the quality of a stock and thus can help you selecting stocks. Often lists of promising stocks are created based on rankings. Although helpful, usual rankings have two disadvantages in common.
Rankings are outdated very fast
Rankings are based on metrics, which in turn are based on market and company data. Market data like stock quotes are outdated very fast. Hence, metrics like price-earnings ratio or the dividend yield are most probably not up-to-date. The problem of outdated data is not restricted to quotes, but to aggregated analyst estimates updated weekly for highly covered stocks and company data updated quarterly.
Rankings ignore your investment strategy
Rankings are based on a certain method of someone but you. That’s bad, because if you have an investment strategy you also have criteria which should be part of the rating. If you prefer low volatile stocks with high dividends you will consider other stocks than an investor preferring high growth stocks with low or no dividends at all.
For this reason, many investors maintain their own rankings in a spreadsheet like Excel.
