Key indicators
When a figure has a bar, the marker places it among its peers, and the further right it sits, the more the figure beats the others. Green marks the best third, red the weakest and white anything in between. Some figures stay white wherever they sit, like price, pace or holding time, because neither side is better there.
Earnings release
The day the company publishes its quarterly accounts: revenue, profit, and often its outlook. The price sometimes moves sharply that day, in either direction. Over the long term, what matters is the trend of profits from one quarter to the next, not the reaction of the day.
