The first third (a green rating of 1-33) indicates that the ticker is undervalued; the second third (a grey number between 34 and 66) means that the ticker is valued fairly; and the last third (red number of 67 to 100) reflects that the ticker is undervalued. We use an FA Score to show how many ratings show the ticker to be undervalued (green) or overvalued (red).

If the Odds of Success (the likelihood of the continuation of a trend) for each indicator are greater than 50%, then the generated signal is confirmed. A green percentage from 90% to 51% indicates that the ticker is in a bullish trend. A red percentage from 90% - 51% indicates that the ticker is in a bearish trend. All grey percentages are below 50% and are considered not to confirm the trend signal.

CHEF’s TA Score shows that 5 TA indicator(s) are bullish while HP’s TA Score has 2 bullish TA indicator(s).

Industries' Descriptions

@Food Distributors (-2.16% weekly)

Food distributors function as intermediaries between food manufacturers and food service operators (such as chefs, restaurants, beverage managers, cafeterias, industrial caterers, hospitals and nursing homes). Food distribution companies buy, store and then supply food items to the food service operators, thereby allowing the latter to have access to a wide range of food items from various manufacturers. Sysco Corporation, US Foods Holding Corp. and Herbalife Nutrition Ltd. are some of the biggest (by market cap) U.S. companies in this segment. Most food service operators buy from local, specialty, and/or broad line food service distributors on a daily or weekly basis. With the rise in e-commerce, consumers are increasingly expecting lower prices, faster service, and higher quality – something that potentially creates the impetus on distribution networks to raise their game.

@Contract Drilling (-0.55% weekly)

The contract drilling industry includes companies that provide onshore and offshore drilling services to the energy sector. Services are delivered on a contractual or per-fee basis. Customers of this industry include major and independent oil and gas companies. Strong oil demand could potentially boost contract fees. Helmerich & Payne, Inc., Transocean Ltd and Patterson-UTI Energy, Inc. are among the major drilling companies in the U.S.
