 Sensitivity

Sensitivity is determined by measuring the "Bear Market Factor" and the "Bad News Factor" against the world reference. A stock will appear on the sensitivity map as a single point created by plotting its "Bear Market Factor" on the Y axis and its "Bad News Factor" on the X axis.

There are three types of sensitivities:

A low sensitivity is the area where the points are plotted on coordinates lower than the average point of the world reference.
A moderate sensitivity is the area where the points are plotted on coordinates higher than the average point of the world reference, but lower than the point whose coordinates are calculated by adding one standard deviation in both directions.
A high sensitivity is the area where the points are plotted on coordinates higher than the point whose coordinates are calculated by adding one standard deviation in both directions to the average point of the world reference.
