S-Factors Definitions

SScore:

Is the weighted normalized representation of our sentiment time series over a look back period. This is a Z-Score. An S-Score of 2 means that the current conversation is more positive than 98% of prior conversations overt the lookback period. An S-Score of -2 means that the current conversation is more negative than 98% of prior conversations over the lookback period. Positive S-Scores are associated with favorable changes in investor sentiment, while negative levels are associated with unfavorable changes. We expect investor sentiment changes to result in stock price changes. Similarly, we expect larger changes in investor sentiment to be associated with larger stock price changes.
