The most accurate play in each family

Each family's play whose calls went the right way most often, tested on 351 stocks since 2005, and what it says about DFY now.

A call is right when the stock rose after an in call or fell after an out call. Trend plays are built to take many small losses for a few big wins, so their hit rates run lower; being right often isn't the same as making the most money. How we test a play.

Each candle is one trading day: the box spans the open and close, the thin line the day's high and low. Hollow boxes closed up, filled boxes closed down. Toggle the averages to see the trend the plays read. Dots above the candles mark news and company filings: hover or tap one to see the story and how the stock moved from the last close before it, against the market on the same days.

What moved DFY lately

Its biggest move against the S&P/TSX in the last 30 sessions, the news read on each, and how reliably that kind of news has moved stocks before. How it's measured

Thu Sep 3−3.2% against the S&P/TSX2.2× a normal day

DFY −1.7%, the S&P/TSX +1.5% that session; −4.1% against the S&P/TSX over five sessions.

No earnings report, rating change, 8-K filing or news story on DFY was found for this session. Be The Puck's headline archive for DFY starts Oct 6, so news stories from that day aren't in it. The S&P/TSX moved +1.5%. The 25 other Financials stocks Be The Puck covers moved +1.6% on average, so most of the move was its own.

If the market cracks: the storm test

How the storm test works

  • Debt0/3

Nothing on the checklist stands out.

Past crashes, peak to low

2022 bear market Jan 2022 to Feb 2022 · back to its old high Mar 2022

DFY−7%
TSX−14%
  • Beta0.46Moves about 0.5× as much as the TSX week to week.
  • Downside capture−120%In months the TSX fell, this fell -120% as much on average (it often rose anyway).
  • Two-year change+30%
  • From 52-week high−15%
  • Debt to equity0.42×
  • Net debt / EBITDA1.7×Years of operating cash earnings it would take to pay off its debt.
  • Interest cover26.2×

A crash marks every stock down; debt decides which companies come through. The storm test scores both halves: how hard the stock swings with the market, and how much debt it carries into a downturn. It describes fragility; it does not predict a crash.
