So what does a company look like? Can you give me examples of a company that has been picked up by a high StockRank and then performed particularly well? Maybe one that people aren't aware of, maybe one of those that you could consider a little bit under the radar.

Yeah, I mean, I could, I could give a few.
21:42
I, I think, you know, there are, there are lots and lots of these, and the ones that I've bought myself always spring to mind and, uh, I can sort of give, you know, some of my best winners in the UK stock market might be, for example, Yu Group, you know, which has YU is, you know, as in Y-U, uh, with a num now for some reason and, and they're like energy and smart meter company.

Um, but that flashed, I think it was back in October 2022, and I didn't actually buy it until January 2023, which is annoying.

But from the moment of that StockRank jump, when it jumped 24 points up to a 99 rank, at that point it was a 34 million market cap, so very, very kind of small cap.
