What is the top-rated Confectioners stock right now?

As of the most recent scoring run, ORION Holdings Corp (001800.KO) ranks first in Confectioners with a composite score of 67.3 out of 100. The composite blends Valuation, Quality, Growth, and Health pillars; the top-rated name typically combines strong fundamentals across all four rather than dominating any single one. Rankings refresh every weekday night.

How is the Confectioners composite score computed?

Each Confectioners stock receives four pillar scores (Valuation, Quality, Growth, Health) on a 0-100 scale, then a weighted composite. Detailed pillar weights are documented on the /methodology page. The same scoring framework runs across every industry, but high-ranking names within a given industry tend to share industry-specific patterns; a bank's Health pillar leans on capital ratios, a biotech's leans on balance-sheet runway, a REIT's Valuation pillar leans on FFO-based metrics instead of raw P/E. Momentum is tracked separately as a Buy/Hold/Sell price-action signal, not folded into the composite.

How often do the Confectioners rankings update?

Every weekday night, after the scoring pipeline completes around 03:30 ET. The dateModified stamp on this page reflects the actual last-refresh time so you can verify freshness. Markets-closed weekends and holidays show the most recent weekday's rankings.
