Why “Moderate relative risk”?
The measures below combine into a safety percentile of 64 among Consumer Cyclical companies. It is relative: 67 or more is lower relative risk, 33–66 moderate, below 33 higher.

●Debt / equity is close to the peer norm. Debt / equity: 0.51× vs peer median 0.46×
●Beta is not reported, so it is left out of the score.

Risk is relative to the sector, not a bankruptcy probability. Banks and brokers carry high leverage by design, and share buybacks can shrink equity and current assets, which raises debt/equity on paper.

A metric that is not reported is left out of the score; the other weights are rescaled.
Scores are sector-relative percentiles from the latest snapshot, always calculated against the whole sector: narrowing the comparison group changes who you compare with, not the scores. Missing metrics are left out and the remaining weights rescaled. How we score
