Another cut at ranking the group of 40 stocks is by using the analysts position of the stock in its group. As an example, if a stock is ranked 1 out of 36 in its group, dividing 1 by 36 gives 0.03. Using this weekends ratings by Zacks on the internet, the following table was constructed. By using this technique, ASYT is ranked in first place. It is ranked 1 out of 36 stocks. There are 6 analysts following the stock - 5 rank it a strong buy and 1 ranks it a buy giving it an overall recommendation of 1.3.
