The 10 strongest large caps in the index — 2026-07-15

This is an archive edition. It was computed retrospectively from the price history that existed on 2026-07-15 — every series is truncated to that date before anything is ranked, so there is no lookahead in the result — but it was not published on the day. Archive editions carry no market commentary, because what the coverage was about that week cannot be reconstructed after the fact.

The ranking measures trailing strength confirmed by trend, penalized for volatility, weighting 12-1 momentum (32%), 3-month return (24%), distance above the 200-day average (22%), 1-year volatility (12%), 1-year max drawdown (10%). 500 names cleared the liquidity and history gates on that date.

The list

At #3, DELL had returned 233.4% over the prior year with 68.2% volatility and a worst drawdown of -32.3%.

Reading an archive edition

The value of these is not the picks — it is seeing how a fixed rule behaved across different markets. A screen that only ever looks good in hindsight is a screen that was fitted after the fact. Ours is published in full and applied identically every time, so the archive is a record you can check the method against rather than a highlight reel.

Nothing here is tailored to your circumstances, and nothing here is a recommendation to buy or sell. Past performance does not predict future results.
